D66 Strain of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii : ウィキペディア英語版 | D66 Strain of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
The D66 strain of ''Chlamydomonas reinhardtii'', a single-celled green alga, is a cell-wall-deficient strain of algae that exhibits normal photosynthetic characteristics, but requires ammonia as a source of nitrogen for growth. This strain of Green Algae is becoming an increasingly popular research organism due to its potential to be used as a source of biofuels. The D66 strain's potential to produce clean and renewable biofuel has also made it an increasingly important topic in the field of Conservation Biology. ==Background==
The D66 strain of ''Chlamydomonas reinhardtii'', has been genetically engineered with no cell wall in order to increase the strain's growth and photosynthesis rates.〔 The technique of genetically engineering Green Algae to increase oil production for biofuels is becoming increasingly more prevalent around the United States. With factors such as high petroleum prices and growing environmental protection concerns, the need for clean and renewable energy sources is higher than ever. Energy corporations and the federal government are investing billions of dollars into green energy research and projects, and algal-based biofuels appear to be a viable energy source for the future. Furthermore the D66 strain’s growth and photosynthesis rates have proven to be higher than the rates of similar genetically engineered algae strains. This strain of algae could be a key factor in the future success of algal-based biofuels.
