Abstract
A microalgal strain of the speciesis characterized by a mutation of an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of chlorophyll that changes the physiology thereof with respect to the wild-type strain of the same species. In particular, with the mutation, microalgae are formed which, with respect to the wild-type strain of the same species, have a lower chlorophyll content and a reduced capacity to absorb visible radiation (light). Further, a process for the production of lipids through the cultivation of the mutatedstrain and the lipids obtained can be used as synthesis intermediates, particularly in the so-called 'green-chemistry' sector or in the production of biofuels.
