Abstract

ABSTRACT The microalgae Tetradesmus obliquus is able to maintain a high photosynthetic efficiency under nitrogen limitation and is considered a promising green microalgae for sustainable production of diverse compounds, including biofuels. Here, we report the first draft whole-genome shotgun sequencing of T. obliquus . The final assembly comprises 108,715,903 bp with over 1,368 scaffolds.
