Aurora has successfully implemented the technique and has developed molecular tools for optimization of the alga- Nannochloropsis. The Company believes that the technique has the potential to rapidly advance algal functional genomics and biotechnology in a commercially relevant group of organisms.<\/p>\n<p>Read more:\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/s9FsRw\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/s9FsRw<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aurora Algae, a company which produces algae based products, has developed a new technique \u2018Homologous recombination\u2019 for genetic optimization to create advanced-trait algae strains for their product development in the pharmaceutical, nutrition, renewable energy and animal feed markets.
