• Carotenoid accumulation in Haematococcus pluvialis in mixotrophic growth (2001, background): “Accumulation of astaxanthin is obtained under N-starvation, high light intensity and with agents which prevent cell division without impairing the ability of the alga to assimilate carbon (Boussiba & Vonshak 1991, Harker et al. 1996, Kobayashi et al. 1997, Fábregas et al. 1998, Boussiba 2000).”
• A green light for engineered algae: redirecting metabolism to fuel a biotechnology revolution. (2008, background): “Interestingly, nitrogen deprivation also promotes the accumulation of the antioxidant pigment astaxanthin in the green alga Haematococcus pluvialis [33].”
• INHIBITION OF ASTAXANTHIN SYNTHESIS UNDER HIGH IRRADIANCE DOES NOT ABOLISH TRIACYLGLYCEROL ACCUMULATION IN THE GREEN ALGA HAEMATOCOCCUS PLUVIALIS (CHLOROPHYCEAE) 1 (2005, background): “In H. pluvialis, extraplastidial oil globules, containing both TAG and esterified astaxanthin, are formed during the exposure of cells to different stresses (Boussiba 2000).”
• Advances in the Production of High-Value Products by Microalgae (2014, unknown): “14 The major commercial use of synthetically produced astax-anthin is as a colorant for aquaculture, primarily for salmonids.”
• Carotenoid extraction methods: A review of recent developments. (2018, background): “Remarkably, the environmental stress factors responsible for astaxanthin accumulation in H. pluvialis are well characterized, and inhibition of cell division (mainly by physiological stress) is established as a key factor for enhanced accumulation of astaxanthin (Boussiba, 2000).”
• COORDINATED CAROTENOID AND LIPID SYNTHESES INDUCED IN PARIETOCHLORIS INCISA (CHLOROPHYTA, TREBOUXIOPHYCEAE) MUTANT DEFICIENT IN Δ5 DESATURASE BY NITROGEN STARVATION AND HIGH LIGHT 1 (2010, background): “…1982, Pick 1998, Rabbani et al. 1998, Mendoza et al. 1999, Borowitzka and Siva 2007), Haematococcus pluvialis under high light and nitrogen stress (Boussiba 2000, Zhekisheva et al. 2002, Wang et al. 2003), and Parietochloris incisa isolated from a high altitude (Merzlyak et al. 2007,…”
• Photoacclimation processes in phytoplankton: mechanisms, consequences, and applications (2009, background): “The commercial production of βcarotene and astaxanthine is based on the exposure of cultures to high light (Boussiba et al. 1999, Boussiba & Vonshak 2000).”
• The accumulation and metabolism of astaxanthin in Scenedesmus obliquus (Chlorophyceae) (2008, background): “5A), the decrease of protein and O2 evolution rate, which were induced by imperative conditions for the pigments accumulation [33].”
• ASTAXANTHIN ACCUMULATION IN HAEMATOCOCCUS PLUVIALIS (CHLOROPHYCEAE) AS AN ACTIVE PHOTOPROTECTIVE PROCESS UNDER HIGH IRRADIANCE 1 (2003, methodology): “These results are in contrast to previous findings that astaxanthin accumulation in H. pluvialis coincided with a decline in the photosynthetic activity (Sprey 1970, Boussiba and Vonshak 1991, Zlotnik et al. 1993).”
• Outdoor cultivation of microalgae for carotenoid production: current state and perspectives (2007, background): “Its accumulation in the cells, in cytoplasmic lipid globules (extraplastidic, unlike β-carotene in Dunaliella), has been studied by a large number of groups (Boussiba 2000; Boussiba and Vonshak 1991; Fábregas et al. 2001, 2003; Harker et al. 1995; Kobayashi et al. 1991, 1992a,b; Lee and Ding 1995; L”
