This paper describes a synthetic modular cyanobacterial consortium that enables carbon-negative production of glycerol and derivatives by linking carbon fixation with downstream bioconversion.

This study evolves Synechocystis strains to tolerate high light, finds genetic mutations that improve photosynthesis and biomass, and identifies key genes involved in light tolerance.

The paper develops marker-free genome engineering platforms to overcome homologous recombination bias in Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973, enabling efficient mutation repair and pathway engineering.

This study enhances salt tolerance in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 through adaptive evolution, identifying key genes and demonstrating applications for bioremediation of saline environments.
