Green algae of the genus, Auxenochlorella, are diploid, oleaginous, single-celled organisms that are highly amenable to genetic transformation by homologous recombination, providing great potential for discovery research and bioengineering. We represent a consortium of research groups at universities and national laboratories in the US that has formed to advance our knowledge of Auxenochlorella. Here you will find links to our publications, sources for the strains we study, our latest research, protocols, and more. If you are interested in learning more, have a look around, and feel free to reach out to us.
