The influence of day/night cycles on biomass yield and composition of Neochloris oleoabundans

Abstract Background Day/night cycles regulate the circadian clock of organisms to program daily activities. Many species of microalgae have a synchronized cell division when grown under a day/night cycle, and synchronization might influence biomass yield and composition. Therefore, the aim of this s...
