Microalgae could be the future of sustainable superfood in a rapidly changing world, study finds frontiersin
). This is an important step on the path to making algae a reliable food source and should help improve the social acceptance of algae as a future source of human nutrition.Algae have the natural potential to display high biomass productivity, excellent nutritional properties, appealing organoleptic traits, resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses, and the potential for commodity scale production.
Current technologies in selection, breeding, and genetic engineering can all contribute to the advancement of nutrient and biomass production in algae. However, there is still much work to be done in order to domesticate algae and obtain strains that exhibit the desirable traits, a process which has been developed in traditional crops plants over millennium. Examples of these traits are rapid growth, resistance to pests and pathogens, and nutritional profiles.
While it has been shown that there has been a slight increase in the transition to alternative protein sources, getting the general public to accept algae as a new, healthy food product, remains a significant challenge. This will mainly depend on different marketing strategies to inform the public of the health benefits these organisms can provide, as well as using breeding and genetic modifications to increase yield and improve the flavor of algae.
