Chlorella vulgaris biorefineries: sustainable biofuels and high‐value carbon capture

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Global reliance on fossil fuels has created urgent economic and environmental challenges, yet large‐scale use of algal biomass remains limited by production costs. Industrial scaling is constrained by inefficient harvesting and the technical challenges of processing recalcitrant cell walls.

Carotenoid Biosynthesis in Rhodotorula glutinis [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1974
It was determined that lycopene could be cyclized directly by Rhodotorula glutinis . It was also shown the the temperature effect (i.e., increased β-carotene synthesis in response to lower incubation temperatures) in R. glutinis was controlled by changes in enzyme concentration.

Does abscisic acid affect strigolactone biosynthesis? [PDF]

, 2010
Strigolactones are considered a novel class of plant hormones that, in addition to their endogenous signalling function, are exuded into the rhizosphere acting as a signal to stimulate hyphal branching of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and germination
