Enhancement of Biomass Production in Colony-Forming Green Algae, Botryosphaerella sudetica, Under Mixotrophic Cultivation.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we characterized the potential of colony-forming green algae, Botryosphaerella sudetica KNUA107, isolated from Ulleung Island, South Korea, as a bioresource and analyzed the effects of mixotrophic cultivation on its bioresource production efficiency. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) (ITS1, 5.8S, and ITS2), ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase large subunit (rbcL), and elongation factor Tu (tufa) regions were used for molecular identification and phylogenetic analysis. B. sudetica KNUA107 had a strong relationship with the green algae of Botryococcus and Botryosphaerella genera, which are colony-forming species, and was also associated with members of the Neochloris genus. To improve biomass productivity, we tested mixotrophic cu
