Abstract The halophilic unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina is characterized as the distinct tolerance to high salt in the
field. Normally the organism is concurrently subjected with salt and alkali stress, but the feature of D. salina in
response to high alkali stress was not investigated before. In this study, we used high pH stress to simulate high
alkali stress and found D. salina also showed tolerance to high alkali stress, even grown under pH at 11.0, with
high cell density and chlorophyll biosynthesis. High-throughput transcriptome analysis revealed the dramatically
different expression of genes associated with nitrogen metabolism, lipid and β-carotene… More >
