Abstract
The invention concerns the use of a type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (NDH-II), or of a polynucleotide encoding said NDH-II, to increase the capacity of a green algae to produce hydrogen. Said polynucleotide is in particular useful for transforming said green algae, so as to improve its hydrogen production.
