Abstract

Microalgae have the almost unique ability among microorganisms to naturally store significant amounts of carbon as neutral lipids that can be converted to biodiesel. Accumulation of neutral lipids has mainly evolved as a response strategy to stress conditions, which on the other hand are detrimental for growth and biomass production. Genetic improvement would be required as part of the effort for algae domestication in order to meet industrial lipid production requirements.
