Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Microalgae are promising feedstock for production of lipids, sugars, bioactive compounds and in particular biofuels, yet development of sensitive and reliable phylotyping strategies for microalgae has been hindered by the paucity of phylogenetically closely-related finished genomes. RESULTS: Using the oleaginous eustigmatophyte Nannochloropsis as a model, we assessed current intragenus phylotyping...
