Abstract:
Unicellular green alga,Dunaliella salina(D.salina),is a biflagellar alga without cell wall,which is a kind of very important eukaryotic microalga.In the previous study,the research of D.salina focus on the morphology,the mechanism of salt tolerance and ?-carotene,however,with the rapid development of microalgal biotechnology,a lot of work about D.salina was reported in recent years.In the area of molecular biology,the studies of D.salina mainly place emphasis on the cloning and analysis of important functional genes,regulatory sequences,and the expression of foreign genes using D.salina as host.The research advance in these aspects were reviewed.
