Time‑resolved transcriptome analysis during transitions of sulfur nutritional status provides insight into triacylglycerol (TAG) and astaxanthin accumulation in the green alga Chromochloris zofingiensis

Abstract Background Chromochloris zofingiensis, an oleaginous microalga, is a promising feedstock for the co-production of triacylglycerol (TAG)-based biodiesel and the high-value product astaxanthin. To reveal the molecular mechanism of TAG and astaxanthin biosynthesis during transitions of sulfur...
