TL;DR: Current knowledge on stress-induced lipid biosynthesis and the putative role of ROS in the control of lipid accumulation in oleaginous microorganisms are summarized to provide guidance for the development of stress-based strategies to enhance microbial lipid production.

TL;DR: Although the application of the CRISPR/Cas9 system in filamentous fungi is still in its infancy compared to its common use in E. coli, yeasts, and mammals, the deep development of this system will certainly drive the exploitation of fungal diversity.

TL;DR: The developments and technological achievements of the 2 important plant hormones (GAs and ABA) have been discussed and guidelines for future studies are proposed in light of the current progress, challenges and trends in the field.

TL;DR: This review aims to summarize the status and strategies of metabolic engineering for the heterologous synthesis of terpenoids in Y. lipolytica in recent years and proposes new methods aiming towards further improvement of ter penoid production.

TL;DR: The developed genome editing tool was used to engineer the metabolic pathways responsible for the accumulation of a series GAs in the filamentous fungus F. fujikuroi, and successfully changed its GA product profile, from GA3 to tailor-made GA4 and GA7 mixtures.
