Acetate-Inducing Metabolic States Enhance Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production in Marine Purple Non-sulfur Bacteria Under Aerobic Conditions
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a family of biopolyesters that a variety of microorganisms accumulate as carbon and energy storage molecules under starvation conditions in the presence of excess carbon. Anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria exhibit a variety of growth styles and high PHA production ac...
