Algal-derived lipids offer a promising feedstock for the production of biofuels. As such, oleaginous microalgae have recently received intensified interest due to their capacity to synthesize and accumulate large quantities of lipids. Chlorella vulgaris represents a promising model organism for examination of lipid accumulation mechanisms and a potential deployment organism in industrial algal biofuels applications.
