Molecular and phylogenetic identification of an oil-producing strain of Nannochloropsis oceanica (Eustigmatophyceae) isolated from the southwestern Atlantic coast (Argentina)

Screening of local microalgae species with potential for oil production is essential to achieve successful commercial large-scale cultures. In this study, identification of a South American species of Nannochloropsis was carried out using molecular and phylogenetic analyses of chloroplastic and nucl...
