Strategies for Improvement of Lipid Production by Yeast <i>Trichosporon oleaginosus</i> from Lignocellulosic Biomass

Microbial lipids have similar fatty acid composition to plant oils, and therefore, are considered as an alternative feedstock for biodiesel production. Oleaginous yeasts accumulate considerable amounts of lipids intracellularly during growth on low-cost renewable feedstocks such as lignocellulosic b...
