Abstract excerpt
The heterotrophic microalga Crypthecodinium cohnii is well known for its lipid accumulation, with a high proportion of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). In this study, we report a novel screening approach to obtain mutants of C. cohnii with high growth and lipid content using the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibitor sethoxydim. C. cohnii mutants were generated using atmospheric and room-temperature plasma (ARTP)...
