Abstract

Abstract:

Microalgae are widely used in bioenergy, functional food, medicine and health care owing to their unique growth advantages and richness in oils, proteins, carotenoids, unsaturated fatty acids and other substances. The use of abiotic stresses（nitrogen deficiency, high light intensity, high temperature, high salinity, heavy metals, etc.）is an effective and traditional means of inducing rapid enrichment of lipids and other metabolites in algal cells; however, it is usually at the expense of the growth of microalgae, which limits the efficient accumulation of target products at the expense of growth. Phytohormones are small molecule signaling substances that regulate algal cell growth and metabolism, including promoting microalgal cell proliferation，enhancing stress tolerance，elevating photosynthetic activity and promoting the accumulation of important secondary metabolites. Therefore, the combination of phytohormones and abiotic stresses can further promote the synthesis of target products and improve the tolerance of microalgae to abiotic stress conditions. Based on this, this paper summarized the types, biosynthetic pathways and physiological functions of phytohormones that have been applied to microalgae culture systems in recent years, analyzed their roles in the responses of microalgale to abiotic stresses and their effects on cell growth and target product synthesis, and discussed the internal mechanism of microalgae resistances to different abiotic stresses under the regulation of phytohormones and the possible mechanism of phytohormone-mediated stress tolerance and lipid accumulation in microalgae. In addition, the opportunities and challenges of exogenous phytohormones are also prospected in the development of microalgae industry, aiming to provide theoretical basis and technical support for the efficient cultivation of microalgae and the accumulation of high value-added products.

Key words: microalgae, exogenous phytohormones, abiotic stress, biomass, target products
