The effect of melatonin (MT) on the coproduction of astaxanthin and lipids was studied in Haematococcus pluvialis under inductive stress conditions. The contents of astaxanthin and lipids were enhanced by 1.78- and 1.3-fold, respectively. MT treatment upregulated the transcription levels of carotenogenic, lipogenic and antioxidant system-related genes and decreased the levels of abiotic stress-induced reactive oxidative species (ROS). Further metabolomic analysis suggested that the intermediates in glycolysis and TCA cycle facilit
