High Carotenoid Mutants of Chlorella vulgaris Show Enhanced Biomass Yield under High Irradiance
Microalgae represent a carbon-neutral source of bulk biomass, for extraction of high-value compounds and production of renewable fuels.Due to their high metabolic activity and reproduction rates, species of the genus Chlorella are highly productive when cultivated in photobioreactors.However, wild-type strains show biological limitations making alg
