Journal ArticleDOI
The potential of sustainable algal biofuel production using wastewater resources
TL;DR: The current research on this topic is reviewed and the potential benefits and limitations of using wastewaters as resources for cost-effective microalgal biofuel production are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protein Phylogenetic Analysis of Ca2+/cation Antiporters and Insights into their Evolution in Plants
TL;DR: The abundance and diversity of CaCA genes throughout all branches of life indicates the importance of this class of cation transporter, and that many transporters with novel functions are waiting to be discovered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shaping the calcium signature.
Martin R. McAinsh,Jon K. Pittman +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence is reviewed which indicates that Ca2+ channel, Ca2-ATPase andCa2+ exchanger isoforms can indeed modulate specific Ca2+.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emerging mechanisms for heavy metal transport in plants.
TL;DR: Three classes of membrane transporters that have been implicated in the transport of heavy metals in a variety of organisms and could serve such a role in plants are concentrated on: the heavy metal (CPx-type) ATPases, the natural resistance-associated macrophage protein (Nramp) family and members of the cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using FTIR spectroscopy for rapid determination of lipid accumulation in response to nitrogen limitation in freshwater microalgae
TL;DR: The results demonstrate rapid metabolic responses of C. reinhardtii and S. subspicatus to changing nutrient availability, and indicate the efficiency of FTIR as a reliable method for high-throughput determination of lipid induction.
