JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 366:121792. [PMID: 39002459 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 06/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
Signal transduction is an important mode of algae-bacteria interaction, in which bacterial quorum sensing (QS) may affect microalgal growth and metabolism. Currently, little is known whether acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) released by bacteria can affect the pollutant removal by algae-bacteria consortia (ABC). In this study, we constructed ABC using Chlorella vulgaris (Cv) with two AHLs-producing bacteria and investigated their performance in the removal of multiple pollutants, including chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen (TN), phosphorus (P), and cadmium (Cd). The AHLs-producing bacteria, namely Agrobacterium sp. (Ap) and Ensifer adherens (Ea), were capable of forming a symbiosis with C. vulgaris. Consortia of Cv and Ap with ratio of 2:1 (Cv2-Ap1) showed the optimal growth promotion and higher removal of Cd, COD, TN, and P compared to the C. vulgaris monoculture. Cv2-Ap1 ABC removed 36.1-47.5% of Cd, 94.5%-94.6% COD, 37.1%-56.0% TN, and 90.4%-93.5% P from the culture medium. In addition, increase of intracellular neutral lipids and extracellular protein, as well as the types of functional groups on cell surface contributed to Cd removal and tolerance in the Cv2-Ap1 ABC. Six AHLs were detected in the Cv2-Ap1 culture. Among these, 3OC8-HSL and 3OC12-HSL additions promoted the ABC growth and enhanced their Cd accumulation. These findings may contribute to further understanding of AHL-mediated communication between algae and bacteria and provide support bioremediation efforts of metal-containing wastewater.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 931:172952. [PMID: 38703841 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.172952] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
Aquatic environments serve as critical repositories for pollutants and have significantly accumulated micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) due to the extensive production and application of plastic products. While the disease resistance and immunity of fish are closely linked to the condition of their aquatic habitats, the specific effects of nanoplastics (NPs) and microplastics (MPs) within these environments on fish immune functions are still not fully understood. The present study utilized zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos and larvae as model organisms to examine the impacts of polystyrene NPs (100 nm) and MPs (5 μm) on fish immune responses. Our findings reveal that NPs and MPs tend to accumulate on the surfaces of embryos and within the intestines of larvae, triggering oxidative stress and significantly increasing susceptibility to Edwardsiella piscicida infection in zebrafish larvae. Transmission electron microscopy examined that both NPs and MPs inflicted damage to the kidney, an essential immune organ, with NPs predominantly inducing endoplasmic reticulum stress and MPs causing lipid accumulation. Transcriptomic analysis further demonstrated that both NPs and MPs significantly suppress the expression of key innate immune pathways, notably the C-type lectin receptor signaling pathway and the cytosolic DNA-sensing pathway. Within these pathways, the immune factor interleukin-1 beta (il1b) was consistently downregulated in both exposure groups. Furthermore, exposure to E. piscicida resulted in restricted upregulation of il1b mRNA and protein levels, likely contributing to diminished disease resistance in zebrafish larvae exposed to MNPs. Our findings suggest that NPs and MPs similarly impair the innate immune function of zebrafish larvae and weaken their disease resistance, highlighting the significant environmental threat posed by these pollutants.

Abstract
This study investigated the impacts of various culture temperatures and light regimes on growth and biochemical constituents of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii under carbon-supply and nitrogen-limited conditions to improve oil production in algal cells. Results displayed that under a 30 ℃ and 150 μE/m2/s regime, there was a significant increase in biomass, total lipids, and lipid productivity. Specifically, these parameters reached 1.83 g/L, 36.25 %, and 130.73 mg/L/d, respectively. Remarkably, prolonging the photoperiod further enhanced the aforementioned three parameters, reaching peak levels of 1.92 g/L, 41.10 %, and 157.54 mg/L/d, respectively, recorded at a 24/0h photoperiod. Compared with cultures grown under normal conditions, these values displayed increments of 1.21-fold, 74.88 %, and 3.01-fold, respectively. Additionally, under optimal conditions, the soluble sugar content reached 79.72 mg/g, and the biodiesel properties were improved. These findings indicate that moderately increasing temperature, light intensity, and photoperiod could achieve the co-production of biomass, lipids, and sugars in C. reinhardtii.

Abstract
Abiotic stresses can increase the total fatty acid (TFA) and astaxanthin accumulation in microalgae. However, it remains unknown whether a unified signal transduction mechanism exists under different stresses. This study explored the link between nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the accumulation of fatty acids and astaxanthin in Chromochloris zofingiensis under three abiotic stresses. Results showed significant increases in fatty acid, astaxanthin, and ROS levels under nitrogen deficiency, phosphorus deficiency, and high-salinity stress. The introduction of the NADPH oxidase inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium (DPI) decreased the content of these components. This underscores the pivotal role of NADPH oxidase-derived ROS in the accumulation of fatty acid and astaxanthin under abiotic stress. Analysis of transcriptomes across three conditions following DPI addition revealed 1,445 shared differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Enrichment analysis revealed that biotin, betalain, thiamine, and glucosinolate may be important in stress responses. The heatmap demonstrated that DPI notably suppressed gene expression in the fatty acid and carotenoid biosynthesis pathways. Our findings underscore the pivotal role of NADPH oxidase-derived ROS in the accumulation of fatty acid and astaxanthin under abiotic stresses.

Abstract
Utilizing monoalgal species for wastewater treatment is facing tremendous challenges owing to changing wastewater complexity in terms of physico-chemical characteristic, nutrient and metal concentration. The environmental conditions are also fluctuating therefore, the formation of robust system is of utmost importance for concomitant sustainable wastewater treatment and bioenergy production. In the present study, the tolerance and adaptability potential of algal consortia-1 (Chlorococcum humicola and Tetradesmus sp.) and consortia-2 (Chlorococcum humicola, Scenedesmus vacuolatus and Tetradesmus sp.) treated with municipal wastewater were examined under natural environmental conditions. The results exhibited that consortia-2 was more competent in recovering nitrate-nitrogen (82.92%), phosphorus (70.47%), and heavy metals (31-73.70%) from municipal wastewater (100%) than consortia-1. The results further depicted that total chlorophyll, carbohydrate, and protein content decreased significantly in wastewater-treated consortia-1 as compared to consortia-2. However, lipid content was increased by 4.01 and 1.17 folds in algal consortia-1 and consortia-2 compared to their respective controls. Moreover, absorption peak at 1740.6 cm-1 reflected higher biofuel-producing potential of consortia-1 as compared to consortia-2 as confirmed through FTIR spectroscopy. The results also revealed that consortia-2 showed the highest photosynthetic performance which was evident from the increment in the active photosystem-II reaction center (1.724 ± 0.068), quantum efficiency (0.633 ± 0.038), and performance index (3.752 ± 0.356). Further, a significant increase in photosynthetic parameters was observed in selected consortia at lag phase, while a noteworthy decline was observed at exponential and stationary phases in consortia-1 than consortia-2. The results also showed the maximum enhancement in ascorbic acid (2.43 folds), proline (3.34 folds), and cysteine (1.29 folds) in consortia-2, while SOD (1.75 folds), catalase (2.64 folds), and GR (1.19 folds) activity in consortia-1. Therefore, it can be concluded that due to remarkable flexibility and photosynthetic performance, consortia-2 could serve as a potential candidate for sustainable nutrient resource recovery and wastewater treatment, while consortia-1 for bio-fuel production in a natural environment. Thus, formation of algal consortia as the robust biosystem tolerates diverse environmental fluctuations together with wastewater complexity and ultimately can serve appropriate approach for environmental-friendly wastewater treatment and bioenergy production.

Abstract
The use of solar energy and heterotrophic microbes to synthesize microbial lipids is a promising strategy to solve energy crisis and reduce CO2 emissions. In this study, a photocatalyst, oxygen-doped graphitic carbon nitride (O-g-C3N4), was synthesized and combined with an oleaginous yeast strain, Cutaneotrichosporon dermatis ZZ-46, to construct a photocatalyst-microbe hybrid (PMH) system. Under illumination, the lipid yield of the PMH system reached 1.61 g/L after 96 h (87 % higher than that of control). NADPH/NADP+ ratio of ZZ-46 cells in the PMH system increased. Metabolomics results revealed that glutathione generation was increased, and the fatty acid decomposition pathway in ZZ-46 cells was inhibited in the PMH system. This study provides a new approach for the synthesis of microbial lipids based on solar energy and heterotrophic microbes.

Abstract
Utilization of fruit peel wastes to grow thraustochytrids for nutritional enrichment of wastes will lower environmental and economic costs associated with feedstock specific for aquaculture industries. In this study, high-carbohydrate content agricultural wastes, such as orange, pineapple, banana, and mausambi fruit peels were enriched with essential fatty acids producing thraustochytrids Aurantiochytrium sp. ATCC276. Characterizations of fruit peels revealed the presence of high carbohydrate content (9-16%) and reducing sugars essential for the growth of thraustochytrids. Optimization for lipid production of Aurantiochytrium sp. ATCC276 was carried out using response surface methodology (RSM) in combination with different concentrations of fruit peels in solid-state fermentation (SSF) conditions. Fruit peels composed of SSF experiments were designed using a central composite design. Aurantiochytrium sp. ATCC276 cells efficiently utilized the sugar components of fruit peels for their growth and lipid accumulation. Different SSF composites made of fruit peels were significantly enriched with fatty acids of Aurantiochytrium sp. ATCC276 cells. Culturing Aurantiochytrium sp. ATCC276 cells with these waste materials demonstrated distinct responses towards lipid accumulation at different compositions. The optimized SSF composite consists of 9.91 g 100 mL-1 orange, 5 g 100 mL-1 mausambi, 4.12 g 100 mL-1 pineapple, and 8.01 g 100 mL-1 banana peels and was enriched with 8.37% of Aurantiochytrium sp. ATCC276-derived lipids. This study expands the benefits and bioprocessing potential of essential fatty acids producing Aurantiochytrium sp. ATCC276 along with fruit peel wastes which a frontier in circular bioeconomy and valorizing waste for usage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhodococci are studied for their bacterial ligninolytic capabilities and proclivity to accumulate lipids. Lignin utilization is a resource intensive process requiring a variety of redox active enzymes and cofactors for degradation as well as defense against the resulting toxic byproducts and oxidative conditions. Studying enzyme expression and regulation between carbon sources will help decode the metabolic rewiring that stymies lignin to lipid conversion in these bacteria. Herein, a redox proteomics approach was applied to investigate a fundamental driver of carbon catabolism and lipid anabolism: redox balance. RESULTS A consortium of Rhodococcus strains was employed in this study given its higher capacity for lignin degradation compared to monocultures. This consortium was grown on glucose vs. lignin under nitrogen limitation to study the importance of redox balance as it relates to nutrient availability. A modified bottom-up proteomics workflow was harnessed to acquire a general relationship between protein abundance and protein redox states. Global proteomics results affirm differential expression of enzymes involved in sugar metabolism vs. those involved in lignin degradation and aromatics metabolism. As reported previously, several enzymes in the lipid biosynthetic pathways were downregulated, whereas many involved in β-oxidation were upregulated. Interestingly, proteins involved in oxidative stress response were also upregulated perhaps in response to lignin degradation and aromatics catabolism, which require oxygen and reactive oxygen species and generate toxic byproducts. Enzymes displaying little-to-no change in abundance but differences in redox state were observed in various pathways for carbon utilization (e.g., β‑ketoadipate pathway), lipid metabolism, as well as nitrogen metabolism (e.g., purine scavenging/synthesis), suggesting potential mechanisms of redox-dependent regulation of metabolism. CONCLUSIONS Efficient lipid production requires a steady carbon and energy flux while balancing fundamental requirements for enzyme production and cell maintenance. For lignin, we theorize that this balance is difficult to establish due to resource expenditure for enzyme production and stress response. This is supported by significant changes to protein abundances and protein cysteine oxidation in various metabolic pathways and redox processes.

Sub-lethal toxicity of five disinfection by-products on microalgae determined by flow cytometry - Lines of evidence for adverse outcome pathways. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 266:115582. [PMID: 37862747 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023]
Abstract
Standardised tests are often used to determine the ecotoxicity of chemicals and focus mainly on one or a few generic endpoints (e.g. mortality, growth), but information on the sub-cellular processes leading to these effects remain usually partial or missing. Flow cytometry (FCM) can be a practical tool to study the physiological responses of individual cells (such as microalgae) exposed to a stress via the use of fluorochromes and their morphology and natural autofluorescence. This work aimed to assess the effects of five chlorine-based disinfection by-products (DBPs) taken individually on growth and sub-cellular endpoints of the green microalgae Raphidocelis subcapitata. These five DBPs, characteristic of a chlorinated effluent, are the following monochloroacetic acid (MCAA), dichloroacetic acid (DCAA), trichloroacetic acid (TCAA), bromochloroacetic acid (BCAA) and 1,1-dichloropropan-2-one (1,1-DCP). Results showed that 1,1-DCP had the strongest effect on growth inhibition (EC50 = 1.8 mg.L-1), followed by MCAA, TCAA, BCAA and DCAA (EC50 of 10.1, 15.7, 27.3 and 64.5 mg.L-1 respectively). Neutral lipid content, reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, red autofluorescence, green autofluorescence, size and intracellular complexity were significantly affected by the exposure to the five DBPs. Only mitochondrial membrane potential did not show any variation. Important cellular damages (>10%) were observed for only two of the chemicals (BCAA and 1,1-DCP) and were probably due to ROS formation. The most sensitive and informative sub-lethal parameter studied was metabolic activity (esterase activity), for which three types of response were observed. Combining all this information, an adverse outcome pathways framework was proposed to explain the effect of the targeted chemicals on R. subcapitata. Based on these results, both FCM sub-cellular analysis and conventional endpoint of algal toxicity were found to be complementary approaches.

Abstract
Magnesium aminoclay nanoparticles (MgANs) exert opposing effects on photosynthetic microalgae by promoting carbon dioxide (CO2) uptake and inducing oxidative stress. This study explored the potential application of MgAN in the production of algal lipids under high CO2 concentrations. The impact of MgAN (0.05-1.0 g/L) on cell growth, lipid accumulation, and solvent extractability varied among three tested oleaginous Chlorella strains (N113, KR-1, and M082). Among them, only KR-1 exhibited significant improvement in both total lipid content (379.4 mg/g cell) and hexane lipid extraction efficiency (54.5%) in the presence of MgAN compared to those of controls (320.3 mg/g cell and 46.1%, respectively). This improvement was attributed to the increased biosynthesis of triacylglycerols and a thinner cell wall based on thin-layer chromatography and electronic microscopy, respectively. These findings suggest that using MgAN with robust algal strains can enhance the efficiency of cost-intensive extraction processes while simultaneously increasing the algal lipid content.

Abstract
The proficiency of microalgae to resist heavy metals has potential to be beneficial in resolving various environmental challenges. Global situations such as the need for cost-effective and ecological ways of remediation of contaminated water and for the development of bioenergy sources could employ microalgae. In a medium with the presence of heavy metals, microalgae utilize different mechanisms to uptake the metal and further detoxify it. Biosorption and the next process of bioaccumulation are two such major steps and they also include the assistance of different transporters at different stages of heavy metal tolerance. This capability has also proved to be efficient in eradicating many heavy metals like Chromium, Copper, Lead, Arsenic, Mercury, Nickel and Cadmium from the environment they are present in. This indicates the possibility of the application of microalgae as a biological way of remediating contaminated water. Heavy metal resistance quality also allows various microalgal species to contribute in the generation of biofuels like biodiesel and biohydrogen. Many research works have also explored the capacity of microalgae in nanotechnology for the formation of nanoparticles due to its relevant characteristics. Various studies have also revealed that biochar deduced from microalgae or a combination of biochar and microalgae can have wide applications specially in deprivation of heavy metals from an environment. This review focuses on the strategies adopted by microalgae, various transporters involved in the process of tolerating heavy metals and the applications where microalgae can participate owing to its ability to resist metals.

NADPH oxidase contributes to the production of reactive oxygen species in Chlorella pyrenoidosa. Biotechnol Lett 2023; 45:199-207.

Abstract
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) play an important role in oxidative stress and are related to the lipid accumulation in microalgae. Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate (NADPH) oxidase can oxidize O2 to O2- ultimately. However, the function of NADPH oxidase and its contribution to the production of the intracellular total ROS are still unclear. In this study, the function of NADPH oxidase in Chlorella pyrenoidosa (C. pyrenoidosa) was investigated by adding activators Ca2+ and NADPH and inhibitors EGTA, LaCl3, DPI and BAPTA of NADPH oxidase. The results show that the addition of activators of Ca2+ or NADPH significantly increased the intracellular concentrations of ROS molecules (H2O2, O2-, and OH·) in C. pyrenoidosa. Moreover, the intracellular ROS level was higher under the nitrogen-deficient and phosphorus-deficient conditions than in control condition, but the addition of the inhibitors (EGTA, LaCl3, DPI, and BAPTA) of NADPH oxidase significantly reduced the intracellular concentrations of H2O2, O2-, and OH·. The study shows that NADPH oxidase actively participated in the production of intracellular ROS in C. pyrenoidosa, demonstrating that NADPH oxidase was another important element in the production of intracellular ROS in addition to mitochondria, chloroplasts and lysozymes in microalgae.

Abstract
Temperature is an important regulator of growth in algae and other photosynthetic organisms. Temperatures above or below the optimal growth temperature could cause oxidative stress to algae through accumulation of oxidizing compounds such as reactive oxygen species (ROS). Thus, algal temperature stress tolerance could be attained by enhancing oxidative stress resistance. In plants, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) has been implicated in cold stress tolerance, eliciting a signal for the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes that counteract oxidative damage associated with several abiotic stresses. Little is known whether temperature stress could be alleviated by ADH in algae. Here, we generated transgenic lines of the unicellular oleaginous alga Nannochloropsis salina that heterologously expressed sysr1, which encodes ADH in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6906. To drive sysr1 expression, the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) promoter isolated from N. salina was used, as its transcript levels were significantly increased under either cold or heat stress growth conditions. When subjected to cold stress, transgenic N. salina cells were more cold-tolerant than wild-type cells, showing less ROS production but increased activity of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, and catalase. Thus, we suggest that reinforcement of alcohol metabolism could be a target for genetic manipulation to endow algae with cold temperature stress tolerance.

Abstract
Ethylicin (ET) was reported to be promising in the control of rice bacterial leaf blight (BLB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). The detailed mechanism for this process remains unknown. Disclosed here is an in-depth study on the action mode of ET to Xoo. Through plant physiological and biochemical analysis, it was found that ET could inhibit the proliferation of Xoo by increasing the content of defense enzymes and chlorophyll in rice (Oryza sativa ssp. Japonica cv. Nipponbare). Label-free quantitative proteomic analysis showed that ET affected the rice abscisic acid (ABA) signal pathway and made the critical differential calcium-dependent protein kinase 24 (OsCPK24) more active. In addition, the biological function of OsCPK24 as a mediator for rice resistance to Xoo was determined through the anti-Xoo phenotypic test of OsCPK24 transgenic rice and the affinity analysis of the OsCPK24 recombinant protein in vitro and ET. This study revealed the molecular mechanism of ET-induced resistance to Xoo in rice via OsCPK24, which provided a basis for the development of new bactericides based on the OsCPK24 protein.

Abstract
Microalgae, the primary producers in water ecosystems, are the main food of fish and shrimp. Microalgae have a great capacity to absorb heavy metals, and low concentrations of heavy metals can promote the growth of them. But high concentrations have a strong influence on the physiological and biochemical processes in algae, such as growth, photosynthesis, cell ultrastructure, protein content and fatty acid composition. Heavy metals may also induce the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which causes the oxidation damage of protein, lipid and thiol peptides, and activates the antioxidant system. Heavy metals can be removed or converted into another state by biosorption of cell surface, accumulation in cells, combining with antioxidant enzymes and so on. This review summarized the responses of microalgae to heavy metals and comprehensively described the removal and tolerance mechanisms by extracellular adsorption and intracellular accumulation, which are helpful to treat pollution and improve the culture of microalgae.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid is an essential ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid, which plays a significant role in cardiovascular health and neurological development, leading to its wide use in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Traditionally, ARA is obtained from deep-sea fish oil. However, this source is limited by season and is depleting the already threatened global fish stocks. With the rapid development of synthetic biology in recent years, oleaginous fungi have gradually attracted increasing attention as promising microbial sources for large-scale ARA production. Numerous advanced technologies including metabolic engineering, dynamic regulation of fermentation conditions, and multiomics analysis were successfully adapted to increase ARA synthesis. This review summarizes recent advances in the bioengineering of oleaginous fungi for ARA production. Finally, perspectives for future engineering approaches are proposed to further improve the titer yield and productivity of ARA.

Abstract
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a model strain to explore algal lipid metabolism mechanism, and exhibits great potentials in large-scale production of lipids. Completely lacking nitrogen is an efficient strategy to trigger the lipid synthesis in microalgal cells, while it always leads to the obvious reduction in the biomass. To illustrate the optimal culture substrate carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) levels to simultaneously stimulate the growth and lipid production of C. reinhardtii, cells were cultivated under altered C and N concentrations. Results showed that replenishing 6 g/L sodium acetate (NaAc) could increase 1.50 and 1.53 times biomass and lipid productivity compared with 0 g/L NaAc treatment (the control), but total lipid content slightly decreased. Reducing 75% of basic medium (TAP) N level (0 g/L NaAc + 0.09 g/L NH4Cl treatment) could promote 21.57% total lipid content in comparison with the control (containing 0.38 g/L NH4Cl), but decrease 44.45% biomass and 34.15% lipid productivity. The result of the central composite design (CCD) experiment suggested the optimum total lipid content together with higher biomass and lipid productivity could be obtained under the condition of 4.12 g/L NaAc and 0.20 g/L NH4Cl. They reached 32.14%, 1.68 g/L and 108.21 mg/L/d, and increased by 36.77%, 93.10% and 1.75 times compared with the control, respectively. It suggests moderately increasing C supply and decreasing N levels could synchronously improve the biomass and lipid content of C. reinhardtii.

Abstract
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoo) is a plant pathogen responsible for rice bacterial blight disease that remains challenging for prevention and cure. To discover innovative and extremely potent antibacterial agents, vanillin moiety was introduced to develop a series of novel mesoionic derivatives. Compound 15 demonstrated excellent in vitro antibacterial activity against Xoo, with a 50% effective concentration value (EC50) of 27.5 μg/mL, which was superior to that of the positive control agent thiodiazole copper (97.1 μg/mL) and comparable to that of compound "A11" (17.4 μg/mL). The greenhouse pot experiment also revealed that compound 15 had 38.5% curative and 36.8% protective efficacy against rice bacterial leaf blight in vivo at 100 μg/mL, which was higher than those of thiodiazole copper (31.2 and 32.6%, respectively) and compound "A11" (29.6 and 33.2%, respectively). Compound 15 enhanced the activities of related defense enzymes, increased chlorophyll content, and promoted the resistance of rice to bacterial infection by modulating the photosynthetic pathway. This study provides a basis for the subsequent structural modification and mechanism research of mesoionic derivatives.

Abstract
Given the strong potential of Yarrowia lipolytica to produce lipids for use as renewable fuels and oleochemicals, it is important to gain in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying its lipid accumulation. As cellular growth rate affects biomass lipid content, we performed a comparative proteomic analysis of Y. lipolytica grown in nitrogen-limited chemostat cultures at different dilution rates. After confirming the correlation between growth rate and lipid accumulation, we were able to identify various cellular functions and biological mechanisms involved in oleaginousness. Inspection of significantly up- and downregulated proteins revealed nonintuitive processes associated with lipid accumulation in this yeast. This included proteins related to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, ER–plasma membrane tether proteins, and arginase. Genetic engineering of selected targets validated that some genes indeed affected lipid accumulation. They were able to increase lipid content and were complementary to other genetic engineering strategies to optimize lipid yield.

Abstract
In this study, the design and synthesis of novel pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidinone mesoionic derivatives incorporating dithioacetal structures were carried out. The three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) model was built according to the EC50 values and directed the synthesis of compound A32. The biological activity test against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc) indicated that compound A32 showed good antibacterial activity with EC50 values of 10.9 and 17.5 mg/L, which were lower than the EC50 values of bismerthiazol (29.3 and 39.8 mg/L) and thiodiazole copper (64.8 and 78.1 mg/L). Furthermore, the in vivo antibacterial activity against bacterial leaf blight (BLB) and bacterial leaf streak (BLS) revealed that the protective activity of compound A32 was 43.9 and 41.7%, respectively, which was better than the protective activity of thiodiazole copper (40.6 and 35.0%). In addition, the protective activity against bacterial leaf blight of compound A32 was associated with the increasing rice defensive enzyme activity and the upregulation of proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation. Moreover, compound A32 could upregulate the expression of complex I (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrogen (NADH) dehydrogenase) in the oxidative phosphorylation pathway, which was verified by complex I activity evaluation.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution in the Antarctic has gone beyond our imagination. Copper toxicity is a selective pressure on Planococcus sp. O5. We observed relatively broad tolerance in the polar bacterium. The heavy metal resistance pattern is Pb2+ > Cu2+ > Cd2+ > Hg2+ > Zn2+. In the study, we combined biochemical and metabolomics approaches to investigate the Cu2+ adaptation mechanisms of the Antarctic bacterium. Biochemical analysis revealed that copper treatment elevated the activity of antioxidants and enzymes, maintaining the bacterial redox state balance and normal cell division and growth. Metabolomics analysis demonstrated that fatty acids, amino acids, and carbohydrates played dominant roles in copper stress adaptation. The findings suggested that the adaptive mechanisms of strain O5 to copper stress included protein synthesis and repair, accumulation of organic permeable substances, up-regulation of energy metabolism, and the formation of fatty acids.

Abstract
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have induced severe damage worldwide. A novel high-efficient antialgal natural chemical, 3-indoleacrylic acid (3-IDC) with a 5-day half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50, 5d), was discovered from canola straw, and its algal inhibition mechanism was investigated. Adverse effects were observed on the growth of P. donghaiense with 3-IDC addition, following an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. 3-IDC also hindered the photosynthetic mechanism of P. donghaiense cells. Transcriptional results showed 3-IDC inhibiting the functions of all the nutrient assimilating genes, down-regulated ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase II, and cytochrome f genes. The expression of heat shock protein (HSP) 70 and 90 and rhodopsin genes were also suppressed. The binding affinity of investigated receptors was observed. The conformational changes induced by the spatial microstructural alteration through 3-IDC may further contribute to the perturbation of those enzyme catalytic activities. The present results provide new insights on controlling HABs using 3-IDC.

Abstract
The recent works have shown the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a relevant model for investigations of algal bioprocesses. In the current work, several media were evaluated in batch mode for a better understanding of C. reinhardtii metabolism. Nutrient-suppression using heterotrophic and mixotrophic conditions were performed. The findings showed C. reinhardtii metabolized lactose (from milk whey permeate) resulting in high biomass density (2.08 g/L) and total chlorophyll content (86.74 mg/m3). It was observed a specific growth rate of 0.023 h and 29 h for the doubling time. In sulfur-suppression, the algal growth (1.17 g/L) was reduced even though a carbon source (glucose) has been supplemented. Also, the specific growth rate (0.022 h) and the doubling time (31 h) was verified. The production of ethanol was slight and the acetic acid-suppression affected the C. reinhardtii performance providing slow cell growth (0.004 h) and high doubling time (154 h).

Abstract
Marine phytoplankton vary widely in size across taxa, and in cell suspension densities across habitats and growth states. Cell suspension density and total biovolume determine the bulk influence of a phytoplankton community upon its environment. Cell suspension density also determines the intercellular spacings separating phytoplankton cells from each other, or from co-occurring bacterioplankton. Intercellular spacing then determines the mean diffusion paths for exchanges of solutes among co-occurring cells. Marine phytoplankton and bacterioplankton both produce and scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), to maintain intracellular ROS homeostasis to support their cellular processes, while limiting damaging reactions. Among ROS, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has relatively low reactivity, long intracellular and extracellular lifetimes, and readily crosses cell membranes. Our objective was to quantify how cells can influence other cells via diffusional interactions, using H2O2 as a case study. To visualize and constrain potentials for cell-to-cell exchanges of H2O2, we simulated the decrease of [H2O2] outwards from representative phytoplankton taxa maintaining internal [H2O2] above representative seawater [H2O2]. [H2O2] gradients outwards from static cell surfaces were dominated by volumetric dilution, with only a negligible influence from decay. The simulated [H2O2] fell to background [H2O2] within ~3.1 µm from a Prochlorococcus cell surface, but extended outwards 90 µm from a diatom cell surface. More rapid decays of other, less stable ROS, would lower these threshold distances. Bacterioplankton lowered simulated local [H2O2] below background only out to 1.2 µm from the surface of a static cell, even though bacterioplankton collectively act to influence seawater ROS. These small diffusional spheres around cells mean that direct cell-to-cell exchange of H2O2 is unlikely in oligotrophic habits with widely spaced, small cells; moderate in eutrophic habits with shorter cell-to-cell spacing; but extensive within phytoplankton colonies.

Abstract
Yeasts are microscopic fungi inhabiting all Earth environments, including those inhospitable for most life forms, considered extreme environments. According to their habitats, yeasts could be extremotolerant or extremophiles. Some are polyextremophiles, depending on their growth capacity, tolerance, and survival in the face of their habitat’s physical and chemical constitution. The extreme yeasts are relevant for the industrial production of value-added compounds, such as biofuels, lipids, carotenoids, recombinant proteins, enzymes, among others. This review calls attention to the importance of yeasts inhabiting extreme environments, including metabolic and adaptive aspects to tolerate conditions of cold, heat, water availability, pH, salinity, osmolarity, UV radiation, and metal toxicity, which are relevant for biotechnological applications. We explore the habitats of extreme yeasts, highlighting key species, physiology, adaptations, and molecular identification. Finally, we summarize several findings related to the industrially-important extremophilic yeasts and describe current trends in biotechnological applications that will impact the bioeconomy.

Abstract
Nowadays, a particular focus is using microalgae to get high-valued health beneficiary lipids. The precise localisation of the lipid droplets (LDs) and biochemical changes are crucial to portray the lipid production strategy in algae, but it requires an in vivo tool to rapidly visualise LD distribution. As a novel strategy, this study focuses on detecting lipid bioaccumulation in a green microalga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii using the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) based probe, 2-DPAN (C24H18N2O). As the messenger molecule and stress biomarker, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) activity was detected in lipid synthesis with the AIE probe, TPE-BO (C38H42B2O4). Distinctive LDs labelled with 2-DPAN have elucidated the lipid inducing conditions, where more health beneficiary α-linolenic acid has been produced. TPE-BO labelled H2O2 have clarified the involvement of H2O2 during lipid biogenesis. The co-staining procedure with traditional green BODIPY dye and red chlorophyll indicates that 2-DPAN is suitable for multicolour LD imaging. Compared with BODIPY, 2-DPAN was an efficient sample preparation technique without the washing procedure. Thus, 2-DPAN could improve traditional fluorescent probes currently used for lipid imaging. In addition, the rapid, wash-free, multicolour AIE-based in vivo probe in the study of LDs with 2-DPAN could advance the research of lipid production in microalgae.

Abstract
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has numerous functions in adjusting the organic health and pragmatic value in medicine and food field. In this study, we compared glycerol and glucose as the only carbon source for DHA production by Aurantiochytrium. When the glycerol concentration was 120 g/L, the maximum DHA yield was 11.08 g/L, and the DHA yield increased significantly, reaching 47.67% of the total lipid content. When the cells grew in glucose, the DHA proportion was 37.39%. Transcriptome data showed that the glycolysis pathway and tricarboxylic acid cycle in Aurantiochytrium were significantly inhibited during glycerol culture, which promoted the tricarboxylic acid transport system and was conducive to the synthesis of fatty acids by acetyl coenzyme A; glucose as substrate activated fatty acid synthesis (FAS)pathway and produced more saturated fatty acids, while glycerol as substrate activated polyketide synthase (PKS)pathway and produced more long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. This laid a foundation for fermentation metabolism regulation and molecular transformation.

Abstract
Industrial demand for capture and utilization using microorganisms to reduce CO2, a major cause of global warming, is significantly increasing. Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a suitable strain for the process of converting CO2 into high-value materials because it can accept CO2 and has various metabolic pathways. However, it has been mainly studied for heterotrophic growth that uses sugars and organic acids as carbon sources, not autotrophic growth. Here, we report that the regulation of reactive oxygen species is critical for growth when using CO2 as a sole carbon source in R. sphaeroides. In general, the growth rate is much slower under autotrophic conditions compared to heterotrophic conditions. To improve this, we performed random mutagenesis using N-methyl-N’-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG). As a result, we selected the YR-1 strain with a maximum specific growth rate (μ) 1.44 day–1 in the early growth phase, which has a 110% faster growth rate compared to the wild-type. Based on the transcriptome analysis, it was confirmed that the growth was more sensitive to reactive oxygen species under autotrophic conditions. In the YR-1 mutant, the endogenous contents of H2O2 levels and oxidative damage were reduced by 33.3 and 42.7% in the cells, respectively. Furthermore, we measured that concentrations of carotenoids, which are important antioxidants. The total carotenoid is produced 9.63 g/L in the YR-1 mutant, suggesting that the production is 1.7-fold higher than wild-type. Taken together, our observations indicate that controlling ROS promotes cell growth and carotenoid production under autotrophic conditions.

Abstract
Phaeodactylum tricornutum (Bacillariophyta) is a worldwide-distributed diatom with the ability to adapt and survive in different environmental habitats and nutrient-limited conditions. In this research, we investigated the growth performance, the total lipids productivity, the major categories of fatty acids, and the antioxidant content in P. tricornutum subjected for 15 days to nitrogen deprivation (N-) compared to standard culture conditions (N+). Furthermore, genes and pathways related to lipid biosynthesis (i.e., glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase, citrate synthase, and isocitrate dehydrogenase) and photosynthetic activity (i.e., ribulose-1,5-bisphospate carboxylase/oxygenase and fucoxanthin-chlorophyll a/c binding protein B) were investigated through molecular approaches. P. tricornutum grown under starvation condition (N-) increased lipids production (42.5 ± 0.19 g/100 g) and decreased secondary metabolites productivity (phenolic content: 3.071 ± 0.17 mg GAE g-1; carotenoids: 0.35 ± 0.01 mg g−1) when compared to standard culture conditions (N+). Moreover, N deprivation led to an increase in the expression of genes involved in fatty acid biosynthesis and a decrease in genes related to photosynthesis. These results could be used as indicators of nitrogen limitation for environmental or industrial monitoring of P. tricornutum.

Abstract
Coupling chemical induction and abiotic stresses is a beneficial strategy for astaxanthin (Asta) induction in Haematococcus pluvialis. The combined application of melatonin (MT) and putrescine (Put) induced Asta and lipid biosynthesis in H. pluvialis under adverse conditions. Under MT and Put inductions, the highest Asta and lipid contents were 3.64% and 55.84%, which were 1.71- and 1.17-times higher than the control group, respectively. The combination of MT and Put also enhanced the expression of carotenogenic, lipogenic and antioxidant enzyme genes. Additionally, this combined treatment increased the endogenous Put content while decreasing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels. Further results proved that endogenous Put promoted Asta production and alleviated oxidative stress by regulating carotenogenesis and GABA and ROS signaling. This study describes a potential process for stimulating Asta and lipid coproduction and highlights the connections among MT, Put, signaling molecules, Asta and lipid synthesis in H. pluvialis.

Abstract
Titania nanoparticle/CdSe quantum dot hybrid structures are a promising bactericidal coating that exhibits a pronounced effect against light-sensitive bacteria. Here, we report the results of a comprehensive study of the photophysical properties and bactericidal functionality of these hybrid structures on various bacterial strains. We found that our structures provide the efficient generation of superoxide anions under the action of visible light due to electron transfer from QDs to titania nanoparticles with ~60% efficiency. We also tested the antibacterial activity of hybrid structures on five strains of bacteria. The formed structures combined with visible light irradiation effectively inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Mycobacterium smegmatis bacteria, the last of which is a photosensitive causative agent model of tuberculosis.

Abstract
1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase is a well-known bacterial producing enzyme that helps plants to overcome stress conditions by modulating ethylene biosynthesis. However, the functional role of ACC deaminase and ethylene in microalgae during stress remains to be explored. In this study, to investigate the role of ACC deaminase (acds) from Pseudomonas putida UW4 in enhancing the biomass and lipid content of Chlamydomonas under nitrogen deficit condition. The synthetic codon-optimized acds gene was cloned into vector pChlamy_4 and introduced into Chlamydomonas. Results indicated that Chlamydomonas-expressing acds lines showed significant tolerance to nitrogen-deficit by reducing the ethylene content. The biomass, chlorophyll content and photosynthetic activity of acds-expressing lines were significantly increased during nitrogen deficit condition. Moreover, the intracellular lipid and fatty acid content were much higher in acds-expressing lines than the wild-type. In terms of stress alleviation, the transgenic lines displayed increased antioxidant enzymes, reduced ROS and lipid peroxidation levels.

Abstract
The diatom Stauroneis sp. was previously identified as a promising source of fucoxanthin and omega-3 oils. Methyl jasmonate (MJ) supplementation is known to enhance metabolite yields in this species without impacting on growth or photosynthesis. Therefore, a label-free proteomics approach was undertaken to further evaluate the functional role of MJ on the diatom's physiology. Of the twenty cultivation regimes were screened, Uf/2 medium with green+white LED's induced the greatest metabolic response when exposed to 10 μM MJ treatment. These conditions significantly enhanced the pigment and total cellular lipids contents. The increase in fucoxanthin correlating with a 20% increase in Trolox reducing equivalent in the total antioxidant assay, indicating a non-enzymatic antioxidant role of fucoxanthin to mitigate the detrimental effects of a redox imbalance within chloroplasts. The proteomics identified 197 proteins up-regulated 48 h after MJ exposure including cell signalling cascades, photosynthetic processes, carbohydrate metabolism, lipid biosynthesis and chloroplast biogenesis. MJ strengthened the dark reactions of photosynthesis to support growth and metabolite fluxes. The MJ-induced ER stress protein triggered lipid body production, facilitating metabolite turnover and trafficking between cellular organelles. Plastid terminal oxidase and glutamate 1-semialdehyde 2,1-aminomutase may act as MJ-induced ROS responsive regulatory switch to support chloroplast biosynthesis. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Phytohormones represents a promising tool to enhance the high-value metabolite yields in plants and algae, however little is known of the role of methyl jasmonate in diatoms at a molecular level. A shotgun proteomics approach was undertaken to determine the influence of MJ on the diatom's cellular physiology in the marine diatom Stauroneis sp., revealing a signal transduction cascade leading to increased lipid and pigment content and identified promising targets for genetic engineering.

Abstract
Microalgae are a valuable natural resource for a variety of value-added products. The growth of microalgae is determined by the impact of many factors, but, from the point of view of the implementation of autotrophic growth, light is of primary importance. This work presents an overview of the influence of light conditions on the growth of microalgae, the content of lipids, carotenoids, and the composition of fatty acids in their biomass, taking into account parameters such as the intensity, duration of lighting, and use of rays of different spectral composition. The optimal light intensity for the growth of microalgae lies in the following range: 26-400 µmol photons m-2 s-1. An increase in light intensity leads to an activation of lipid synthesis. For maximum lipid productivity, various microalgae species and strains need lighting of different intensities: from 60 to 700 µmol photons m-2 s-1. Strong light preferentially increases the triacylglyceride content. The intensity of lighting has a regulating effect on the synthesis of fatty acids, carotenoids, including β-carotene, lutein and astaxanthin. In intense lighting conditions, saturated fatty acids usually accumulate, as well as monounsaturated ones, and the number of polyunsaturated fatty acids decreases. Red as well as blue LED lighting improves the biomass productivity of microalgae of various taxonomic groups. Changing the duration of the photoperiod, the use of pulsed light can stimulate microalgae growth, the production of lipids, and carotenoids. The simultaneous use of light and other stresses contributes to a stronger effect on the productivity of algae.

Abstract
Under ultra-high cadmium (Cd) stress, large amounts of glutathione are produced in Auxenochlorella protothecoides UTEX 2341, and the lipid content increases significantly. Glutathione is the best reductant that can effectively remove Cd, but the relationship between lipid accumulation and the cellular response to Cd stress has not been ascertained. Integrating analyses of the transcriptomes and lipidomes, the mechanism of lipid accumulation to Cd tolerance were studied from the perspectives of metabolism, transcriptional regulation and protein glutathionylation. Under Cd stress, basic metabolic pathways, such as purine metabolism, translation and pre-mRNA splicing process, were inhibited, while the lipid accumulation pathway was significantly activated. Further analysis revealed that the transcription factors (TFs) and genes related to lipid accumulation were also activated. Analysis of the TF interaction sites showed that ABI5, MYB_rel and NF-YB could further regulate the expression of diacylglycerol acyltransferase through glutathionylation/deglutathionylation, which led to increase of the triacylglycerol (TAG) content. Lipidomes analysis showed that TAG could help maintain lipid homeostasis by adjusting its saturation/unsaturation levels. This study for the first time indicated that glutathione could activate TAG synthesis in microalga A. protothecoides, leading to TAG accumulation and glutathione accumulation under Cd stress. Therefore, the accumulation of TAG and glutathione can confer resistance to high Cd stress. This study provided insights into a new operation mode of TAG accumulation under heavy metal stress.

Exogenous Antioxidants Improve the Accumulation of Saturated and Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Schizochytrium sp. PKU#Mn4. Mar Drugs 2021; 19:md19100559.

Abstract
Species of Schizochytrium are well known for their remarkable ability to produce lipids intracellularly. However, during their lipid accumulation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated inevitably as byproducts, which if in excess results in lipid peroxidation. To alleviate such ROS-induced damage, seven different natural antioxidants (ascorbic acid, α-tocopherol, tea extract, melatonin, mannitol, sesamol, and butylated hydroxytoluene) were evaluated for their effects on the lipid accumulation in Schizochytrium sp. PKU#Mn4 using a fractional factorial design. Among the tested antioxidants, mannitol showed the best increment (44.98%) in total fatty acids concentration. However, the interaction effects of mannitol (1 g/L) and ascorbic acid (1 g/L) resulted in 2.26 ± 0.27 g/L and 1.45 ± 0.04 g/L of saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids (SFA and PUFA), respectively, in batch fermentation. These concentrations were further increased to 7.68 ± 0.37 g/L (SFA) and 5.86 ± 0.03 g/L (PUFA) through fed-batch fermentation. Notably, the interaction effects yielded 103.7% and 49.6% increment in SFA and PUFA concentrations in batch fermentation. The possible mechanisms underlining those increments were an increased maximum growth rate of strain PKU#Mn4, alleviated ROS level, and the differential expression of lipid biosynthetic genes andupregulated catalase gene. This study provides an applicable strategy for improving the accumulation of SFA and PUFA in thraustochytrids by exogenous antioxidants and the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Pneumocandin B0, the precursor of the antifungal drug caspofungin, is a lipohexapeptide produced by the fungus Glarea lozoyensis. Oxidative stress and the resulting production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to be involved in the regulation of pneumocandin B0 biosynthesis. In this study, the Glyap1 gene of Glarea lozoyensis, a homologue of the yeast redox regulator YAP1, was knocked out. The intracellular ROS levels of the resulting ΔGlyap1 strain were higher than in the wild-type strain, which was caused by the downregulated expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT). Compared with the wild-type strain, ΔGlyap1 exhibited an oxidative phenotype throughout its life cycle, which resulted in significantly higher pneumocandin B0 production per unit biomass. In addition, ΔGlyap1 showed growth inhibition and decreased pneumocandin B0 production in the presence of CCl4, which leads to strong oxidative stress. To overcome the strain's sensitivity, a three-stage antioxidant addition strategy was developed. This approach significantly improved the growth of ΔGlyap1 while maintaining a high pneumocandin B0 production per unit biomass, which reached 38.78 mg/g DCW. Notably, this result represents a 50% increase over the wild-type strain. These findings provide new insights into the regulatory mechanisms that control pneumocandin B0 production under oxidative stress, which may be applied to improve the production of other secondary metabolites. KEY POINTS: • Glyap1 is involved in expression of redox and pneumocandin B0 synthesis-related genes. • Addition of a three-stage antioxidant alleviated the sensitivity of ΔGlyap1 strain. • The yield of pneumocandin B0 per unit biomass of ΔGlyap1 strain was 38.78 mg/g DCW.

Abstract
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has plant growth-promoting potential, and interaction with Arachis hypogaea changes host-plant physiology, biochemistry, and metabolomics, which provides tolerance under the N2 starvation conditions. About 226 suppression subtractive hybridization clones were obtained from plant-microbe interaction, of which, about 62% of gene sequences were uncharacterized, whereas 23% of sequences were involved in photosynthesis. An uncharacterized SSH clone, SM409 (full-length sequence showed resemblance with Cytb6), showed about 4-fold upregulation during the interaction was transformed to tobacco for functional validation. Overexpression of the AhCytb6 gene enhanced the seed germination efficiency and plant growth under N2 deficit and salt stress conditions compared to wild-type and vector control plants. Results confirmed that transgenic lines maintained high photosynthesis and protected plants from reactive oxygen species buildup during stress conditions. Microarray-based whole-transcript expression of host plants showed that out of 272,410 genes, 8704 and 24,409 genes were significantly (p < 0.05) differentially expressed (> 2 up or down-regulated) under N2 starvation and salt stress conditions, respectively. The differentially expressed genes belonged to different regulatory pathways. Overall, results suggested that overexpression of AhCytb6 regulates the expression of various genes to enhance plant growth under N2 deficit and abiotic stress conditions by modulating plant physiology.

Abstract
Microalgal lipids are highly promising feedstocks for biofuel production. Microalgal lipids, especially triacylglycerol, and practical applications of these compounds have received increasing attention in recent years. For the commercial use of microalgal lipids to be feasible, many fundamental biological questions must be addressed based on detailed studies of algal biology, including how lipid biosynthesis occurs and is regulated. Here, we review the current understanding of microalgal lipid biosynthesis, with a focus on the underlying regulatory mechanisms. We also present possible solutions for overcoming various obstacles to understanding the basic biology of microalgal lipid biosynthesis and the practical application of microalgae-based lipids. This review will provide a theoretical reference for both algal researchers and decision makers regarding the future directions of microalgal research, particularly pertaining to microalgal-based lipid biosynthesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microbial oils, generated from lignocellulosic material, have great potential as renewable and sustainable alternatives to fossil-based fuels and chemicals. By unravelling the diversity of lipid accumulation physiology in different oleaginous yeasts grown on the various carbon sources present in lignocellulose hydrolysate (LH), new targets for optimisation of lipid accumulation can be identified. Monitoring lipid formation over time is essential for understanding lipid accumulation physiology. This study investigated lipid accumulation in a variety of oleaginous ascomycetous and basidiomycetous strains grown in glucose and xylose and followed lipid formation kinetics of selected strains in wheat straw hydrolysate (WSH). RESULTS Twenty-nine oleaginous yeast strains were tested for their ability to utilise glucose and xylose, the main sugars present in WSH. Evaluation of sugar consumption and lipid accumulation revealed marked differences in xylose utilisation capacity between the yeast strains, even between those belonging to the same species. Five different promising strains, belonging to the species Lipomyces starkeyi, Rhodotorula glutinis, Rhodotorula babjevae and Rhodotorula toruloides, were grown on undiluted wheat straw hydrolysate and lipid accumulation was followed over time, using Fourier transform-infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. All five strains were able to grow on undiluted WSH and to accumulate lipids, but to different extents and with different productivities. R. babjevae DVBPG 8058 was the best-performing strain, accumulating 64.8% of cell dry weight (CDW) as lipids. It reached a culture density of 28 g/L CDW in batch cultivation, resulting in a lipid content of 18.1 g/L and yield of 0.24 g lipids per g carbon source. This strain formed lipids from the major carbon sources in hydrolysate, glucose, acetate and xylose. R. glutinis CBS 2367 also consumed these carbon sources, but when assimilating xylose it consumed intracellular lipids simultaneously. Rhodotorula strains contained a higher proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids than the two tested Lipomyces starkeyi strains. CONCLUSIONS There is considerable metabolic diversity among oleaginous yeasts, even between closely related species and strains, especially when converting xylose to biomass and lipids. Monitoring the kinetics of lipid accumulation and identifying the molecular basis of this diversity are keys to selecting suitable strains for high lipid production from lignocellulose.

Abstract
Stress-tolerant oleaginous microalgae are promising for economical outdoor cultivation and biofuel production. This study aimed to induce acclimation and adaptive evolution of oleaginous Scenedesmus sp. SPP to tolerate crucial outdoor stresses by stepwise increasing of physicochemical factors: salinity, light intensity and temperature. The acclimatized strains showed better growth and accumulated 20-30% higher contents of lipids and chlorophylls. The adaptive-evolved strain showed greater tolerance to culture stresses by giving > 2-fold higher biomass under nitrogen rich and accumulating > 1.5-fold higher lipid content under nitrogen starvation compared to the parental strain. Moreover, stepwise increasing of multi-stresses successfully induced the multi-tolerance of the adaptive-evolved strain and gave the highest lipid content of 44.1 ± 1.5%. The extracted lipids from acclimatized/evolved strains show improved prospect fuel properties in terms of high cetane number and oxidative stability. These results show the effectiveness of stepwise-incremental physicochemical factors to intensify potential of microalgae for outdoor cultivation and as biodiesel feedstocks.
