Production of a thermal stress resistant mutant Euglena gracilis strain using Fe-ion beam irradiation.

Abstract excerpt

Euglena gracilis is a common phytoplankton species, which also has motile flagellate characteristics. Recent research and development has enabled the industrial use of E. gracilis and selective breeding of this species is expected to further expand its application. However, the production of E. gracilis nuclear mutants is difficult because of the robustness of its genome. To establish an efficient mutation...
