Abstract
The present technology relates to a microalga that is genetically modified by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme Δ0-elongase (Δ0-ELO), which uses palmitic acid, a saturated fatty acid, as substrate and is associated with the production of monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG). The present technology also relates to a process for culturing the microalga for increased production of triacylglycerols (TAGs) and recovery of the TAGs.
