Plastic debris is an established environmental menace affecting aquatic systems globally.
Recently, microplastics (MP) and plastic leachates (PL) have been detected in vital human …

Salinity is one of the most decisive environmental factors threatening the productivity of crop
plants. Understanding the mechanisms of plant salt tolerance is critical to be able to …

The main aim of the present study was to analyze salinity stress induced physiological and
biochemical changes in a freshwater microalgae Acutodesmus dimorphus. During single …

High salinity, nutrient deficiency, heavy metals, desiccation, temperature fluctuations, and
ultraviolet radiations are major abiotic stress factors considered inhospitable to algal growth …

Microalgae-derived carotenoids have increasingly been considered as feasible green
alternatives for synthetic antioxidants. In this study, the lutein high-yielding strain (Chlorella …

Salinity stress has been verified to be a successful approach to enhance lipid production in
high-starch marine algae, and salinity-induced carbon flow switching has been proposed as …

Background Chromochloris zofingiensis, a freshwater alga capable of synthesizing both
triacylglycerol (TAG) and astaxanthin, has been receiving increasing attention as a leading …

Microalgae are considered to be a promising alternative feedstock for biofuel production to
prevent global warming and the depletion of fossil fuel. In this study, the effect of NaCl on …

This work aimed to gain mechanistic insights into the salt stress mediated enhanced lipid
accumulation in microalgae. Two freshwater microalgae were isolated from North Guwahati …

It is established that biodiversity determines productivity of natural ecosystems globally. We
have proved that abiotic factors influenced biomass productivity in engineered ecosystems …
