Dunaliella is a genus of algae, specifically of the Dunaliellaceae.[1]

Dunaliella sp. are motile, unicellular, rod to ovoid shaped (9 - 11 µm) green algae (Chlorophyceae), which are common in marine waters.

The organisms are relatively simple to cultivate and do not clump or form chains.

A new species of Dunaliella was discovered in the Atacama desert in 2010. It is believed that the algae is sustained by the condensation of water vapour on hanging spider-webs. [2]

The best-known species is the halophile Dunaliella salina Teodor.

Dunaliella tertiolecta

Dunaliella tertiolecta, is a marine green flagellate with a cell size of 10 – 12 µm.[3]

This strain is reported to have oil yield of about 37% (organic basis). D. tertiolecta is a fast growing strain and that means it has a high CO2 sequestration rate as well.[4][5]
