Abstract: Scenedesmus acuminatus , also known as Tetradesmus acuminatus , is a promising green microalga for sustainable production of microalga products, including valuable compounds such as astaxanthin, β-carotene, and lutein, polysaccharides such as β-glucan, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Here, we report the draft whole-genome sequence of Scenedesmus acuminatus SAG 38.81.<br /> (Copyright © 2020 Astafyeva et al.)
