TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of a microalga from Mexico that can tolerate CO2 and produce lipids, making it useful for biotechnology.
Contribution
The novel contribution is the draft genome and annotation of Scenedesmus bijugus var. obtusiusculus AT-UAM, a CO2-tolerant lipid-producing microalga.
Findings
The microalga strain is CO2-tolerant and accumulates high levels of lipids.
It was isolated from Cuatro Ciénegas, Mexico, and shows adaptability for biotechnological use.
Abstract
We report the draft genome sequence of Scenedesmus bijugus var. obtusiusculus AT-UAM, a CO2-tolerant and lipid-producing microalga isolated from Cuatro Ciénegas, México. The strain shows potential for biotechnological applications due to its adaptability and high lipid accumulation.
