Present investigation focused on marine microalgae strain Coelastrum sp. for enhanced biodiesel production. Microalgae grow when stressed and produce enhanced lipids despite urea being present. The dry cell weight, chlorophyll (a) content and total biomass yield increased productivity after the addi...
