ABSTRACT=<p>WRINKLED1 (WRI1) is an important transcription factor controlling lipid biosynthesis. To elucidate the function of <italic>Dunaliella parva</italic> WRI1-like (WRI1-like) (i. e., DpWRI1-like), the targets of DpWRI1-like were identified by chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing. The results showed that DpWRI1-like regulated many target genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, photosynthesis, and transcription factor. It was proposed that DpWRI1-like participated in a regulatory network controlling lipid biosynthesis. This work laid a good foundation for a deep understanding of the regulatory mechanism of DpWRI1-like in <italic>D. parva</italic>.</p>
