High salinity is a challenging environmental stress for organisms to overcome. Unicellular
photosynthetic microalgae are especially vulnerable as they have to grapple not only with …

Mixotrophic microalgae cultivation is becoming the most promising and sustainable process
for sustainable biosynthesis of biochemicals and biofuels. It offers significantly higher …

Current research aimed to increase mixotrophic biomass from various organic carbon
sources by exploring best light conditions. Three substrates glucose, acetic acid and …

There is increasing awareness that many terrestrial and aquatic organisms are not strictly
heterotrophic or autotrophic but rather mixotrophic. Mixotrophy is an intermediate nutritional …

Microalgae biomass as a sustainable feedstock has become an attractive alternative to
traditional terrestrial plants for production of renewable chemicals and biofuels. However …

Several green, photosynthetic plants in orchids and Ericaceae were recently found to
recover carbon from the mycorrhizal fungi associated with their roots, a dual nutritional …

The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii transcriptome was characterized from nutrient-replete and
sulfur-depleted wild-type and snrk2. 1 mutant cells. This mutant is null for the regulatory Ser …

We performed a systematic investigation of the quantitative relationship between genome
copy number, transcription, transcript abundance and synthesis of photosynthetic proteins in …

Background Individual nutrient depletion is widely used to induce lipid accumulation in
microalgae, which also causes cell growth inhibition and decreases the total biomass. Thus …

Some green orchids obtain carbon (C) from their mycorrhizal fungi and photosynthesis. This
mixotrophy may represent an evolutionary step towards mycoheterotrophic plants fully …
