Description:

Nannochloropsis is a heterogeneous genus of algae in eukaryotes. Although they can be found in both fresh and brackish water, Nannochloropsis occurs widely in salt water around the world. Several Nannochloropsis species have proven suitable for algal biofuel production and are popular for use in aquaculture feeds and dietary supplements. Nannochloropsis is a bulldog-like algae that is optimal for scientific projects because it remains in suspension and is difficult to kill.
