Time-resolved carotenoid profiling and transcriptomic analysis reveal mechanism of carotenogenesis for astaxanthin synthesis in the oleaginous green alga Chromochloris zofingiensis

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background Chromochloris zofingiensis is emerging as an industrially relevant alga given its robust growth for the production of lipids and astaxanthin, a value-added carotenoid with broad applications.

The Effects of Halogenated Compounds on the Anaerobic Digestion of Macroalgae

open access: yesFermentation, 2020
The urgent need to replace fossil fuels has seen macroalgae advancing as a potential feedstock for anaerobic digestion. The natural methane productivity (dry weight per hectare) of seaweeds is greater than in many terrestrial plant systems.

An Overview of the Algae-Mediated Biosynthesis of Nanoparticles and Their Biomedical Applications

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Algae have long been exploited commercially and industrially as food, feed, additives, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and fertilizer, but now the trend is shifting towards the algae-mediated green synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs).

Algae as New Kids in the Beneficial Plant Microbiome

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Previously, algae were recognized as small prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms found only in aquatic habitats. However, according to a recent paradigm shift, algae are considered ubiquitous organisms, occurring in plant tissues as well as in soil ...

Light control of the flow of phototactic microswimmer suspensions

open access: yes, 2013
Some micro-algae are sensitive to light intensity gradients. This property is known as phototaxis: the algae swim toward a light source (positive phototaxis). We use this property to control the motion of micro-algae within a Poiseuille flow using light.

Cell death and degeneration in the symbiotic dinoflagellates of the coral Stylophora pistillata during bleaching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Rising sea temperatures are increasing the incidences of mass coral bleaching (the dissociation of the coral–algal symbiosis) and coral mortality. In this study, the effects of bleaching (induced by elevated light and temperature) on the condition of ...
