Metabolic engineering of cyanobacteria and microalgae for enhanced production of biofuels and high‐v

Abstract A lot of research has been performed on cyanobacteria and microalgae with the aim to produce numerous biotechnological products. However, native strains have a few shortcomings, like limitations in cultivation, harvesting and product extraction, which prevents reaching optimal production value at lowest costs. Such limitations require the intervention of genetic engineering to produce strains with superior properties. Promising advancements in the cultivation of cyanobacteria and microalgae have been achieved by...
