Microalgae - Microbe
Oleaginous fresh water microalgae Scenedesmus sp. SVMIICT1 isolated fromNagarjuna Sager Project (NSP) canal. It is a potential strain to produce pigment Lutein,triacylglycerols, carbohydrates and protein under varied environmental conditions Axenic culturewas grown in photoautotrophically under the low light 50 mol/s/ m 2 photosynthetically activeradiation (PAR) entrained rhythm of 12 h Light and 12 h dark in Bolds Basal Medium (BBM).Morphological and molecular identification were accomplished for the isolate. Morphologicalidentification of Scenedesmus sp. SVMIICT1 the cells were matched with genus ScenedesmusMH683910.1. Later photosynthetic culture was grown at optimal light intensity of 250 mol/s/ m2 . Scenedesmus sp SVMIICT1 freshwater microalgae (size 8m) ovate cell without spines,truncated cell poles, it belongs to an order Sphaeropleales, class Chlorophyceae. Molecularidentification of the microalgae by Sangers sequencing was completed, axenic microalgae partialgenome sequence is matched with Scenedemsus sp. Sequence has deposited in the GenBank andreceived accession number (MG970606.1) and same has deposited in National Collection ofIndustrial Microorganisms (NCIM-Pune) with strain deposition number (Scenedesmus sp(SVMIICT1) /NCIM 5712) dated 26-12-2018
