High lipid content in microalgae is an essential parameter for adopting of microalgal biomass as a feedstock for biodiesel. Mutation is one approach to obtain desired algal strain with high lipid production. In this study, a mutant strain of Chlorella pyrenoidosa was isolated using 1.5 x 10(15) ions cm(-2) s(-1) of N+ ion beam implantation technique, which has been widely used in mutagenesis of agricultural crops. N+ implantation slightly improved the growth of the mutant over the corresponding wild strain with significant increase in lipid content (32.4 % higher than the wild strain), which resulted in significant increase in lipid productivity by 35 %. In addition, ion implantation mutagenesis of C. pyrenoidosa resulted in 21.4% decrease in total saturated fatty acids (SFAs) compared to the wild type, with a noticeable increase in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). The increase in PUFAs was due mainly to stimulation of hexadecadienoic acid (C16: 2) and octadecadienoic acid (C18: 2) production. However, the SFA content of wild and mutant strains was 31.7 and 24.9 % of total fatty acids, respectively, highlighting the oxidative stability of biodiesel produced by both strains according to the European standards. Cultivation of C. pyrenoidosa mutant in selenite enrichment medium for five successive cultivation experiments showed insignificant changes in biomass productivity, lipid content, and lipid productivity alongside the study period, which confirms the genetic stability of the produced mutant. The present study confirmed the feasibility of generation of microalgae mutants with significant high lipid production using ion beam implantation.
