Meanings of starchless mutants in anglès

All five starchless mutants showed a decreased or completely absent starch content.

Results: Five starchless mutants have been isolated successfully from over 3,500 mutants.

So far no starchless mutants in oleaginous green microalgae have been isolated that result in higher TAG productivities.

As shown for starchless mutants of the non-oleaginous model alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, reduced carbohydrate synthesis can enhance TAG production.

In an attempt to increase TAG content, productivity and yield, starchless mutants of this high potential strain were generated using UV mutagenesis.

In parallel, an increased TAG accumulation rate was observed for the starchless mutants and no substantial decrease in biomass productivity was perceived.
