Variation of fatty acid desaturation in response to different nitrate levels in Auxenochlorella pyrenoidosa
Microalgae are promising feedstocks for biodiesel, where the high proportion of monounsaturated fatty acid such as oleic acid (C18:1) is preferred. To regulate fatty acid desaturation in microalgae, the relationship among nitrate concentration, fatty acid composition and the expression levels of des...
