Enhancing starch production of a marine green microalga Tetraselmis subcordiformis through nutrient limitation
Abstract
Microalgal starch is a potential feedstock for biofuel production. The effects of KNO(3) and MgSO(4) concentrations and light intensity on biomass and starch production by the marine microalga, Tetraselmis subcordiformis, were investigated. Under 200 μmol m(-2) s(-1) irradiance and sulfur-deprived conditions, a starch productivity of 0.62 g L(-1) d(-1) and a starch content of 62.1% based on dry weight (DW) was achieved. A starch content of 54.3% was achieved under low irradiance and nitrogen starvation, which was 6.5% higher than that under nutrient- and light-sufficient conditions. Photosynthetic activity was indispensable for starch accumulation. It is difficult to reach high starch productivity and starch concentration simultaneously. Proper nutrient concentrations are necessary to achieve high starch productivity or starch concentration based on the target. The high starch productivity and starch content suggest that T. subcordiformis is a promising microalgal starch producer.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
