Abstract

The microalga Nannochloropsis is an important organism for algae-based biocommodity production of food, feed, and fuel, among other products. Using PacBio Revio, we sequenced, assembled, and annotated a 26.41 Mbp Nannochloropsis oceanica C018 genome.

Keywords: algae; biofuels; bioinformatics; biotechnology; carbon capture; next-generation sequencing.
