MUTANT NANNOCHLOROPSIS OCULATA STRAIN KCTC18242P INCREASED LIPID CONTENT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING LIPID USING THE SAME STRAIN

摘要

The present invention relates to a mutant Nannochloropsis oculata strain (KCTC18242P) with an increased intercellular lipid content and a method for manufacturing lipid using the same. According to the present invention, provided is a mutant Nannochloropsis oculata strain with high growth rate and an increased lipid content. Moreover, the mutant Nannochloropsis oculata strain of the present invention provides a mutant strain having a low pigment content compared with wild-type Nannochloropsis oculata to simplify a biodiesel separation process.
