Method for cultivating a microalgae capable of heterotrophic growth, comprising: incubating the microalgae in a condition of heterotrophic growth for a period of time sufficient to allow the microalgae to grow, in which the microalgae is a strain of Botryococcus, a strain of Neochloris or strain of Chlamydomonas, in which the heterotrophic growth condition comprises a medium comprising a fixed carbon source, and in which the heterotrophic growth condition further comprises an irradiance of a white light of 3-4 μmol of photons / m2. , blue light of 2-3 μmol of photons / m2s and / or red light of 1-2 μmol of photons / m2s. |
