Abstract Finding causal relationships between genotypic and phenotypic variation is a key focus of evolutionary biology, human genetics plant breeding. To identify genome-wide patterns underlying trait diversity, we assembled high-quality reference genome Cardamine hirsuta , close relative the model Arabidopsis thaliana . We combined comparative transcriptome analyses with experimental tools available in C. to investigate gene function diversification. Our findings highlight prevalent role...
Ulva is a ubiquitous macroalgal genus of commercial interest. Integrated Multi Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) systems promise large-scale production macroalgae due to their high productivity and environmental sustainability. Complex host-microbiome interactions play decisive role in development, especially spp. algal growth- morphogenesis-promoting factors released by associated bacteria. However, our current understanding the microbial community assembly structure cultivated scant. We aimed...
Macroalgal microbiomes have core functions related to biofilm formation, growth, and morphogenesis of seaweeds. In particular, the growth development sea lettuce Ulva spp. (Chlorophyta) depend on bacteria releasing morphogenetic compounds. Under axenic conditions, macroalga mutabilis develops a callus-like phenotype with cell wall protrusions. However, co-culturing Roseovarius sp. (MS2) Maribacter (MS6), which produce various stimulatory chemical mediators, completely recovers morphogenesis....
Land plants have a remarkable life cycle that alternates between diploid sporophytic and haploid gametophytic generation, both of which are multicellular changed drastically during evolution. Classical MIKC MADS-domain (MIKCC) transcription factors famous for their role in development considered crucial its About the regulation gametophyte development, contrast, little is known. Recent evidence indicated closely related MIKC* proteins important functioning Arabidopsis thaliana male (pollen)....
Abstract Background The hydrogenosomes of the anaerobic ciliate Nyctotherus ovalis show how mitochondria can evolve into because they possess a mitochondrial genome and parts an electron-transport chain on one hand, hydrogenase other hand. permits direct reoxidation NADH it consists [FeFe] module that is fused to two modules, which are homologous 24 kDa 51 subunits complex I. Results belongs clade hydrogenases different from well-known eukaryotic hydrogenases. modules most closely related...
Abstract Main conclusion We advance Ulva ’s genetic tractability and highlight its value as a model organism by characterizing APAF1_C/WD40 domain-encoding gene, which belongs to family that bears homology R genes. The multicellular chlorophyte alga mutabilis (Ulvophyceae, Ulvales) is native coastal ecosystems worldwide attracts both high socio-economic scientific interest. To further understand the mechanisms guide biology, we present protocol, based on adapter ligation-mediated PCR, for...
Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) are a major constituent of the phytoplankton and have universally recognized ecological importance. Between 1,000 1,300 diatom genera been described in literature, but only 10 nuclear genomes published made available to public up date. Skeletonema costatum is cosmopolitan marine diatom, principally occurring coastal regions, one most abundant members genus. Here we present draft assembly cf. RCC75 genome, obtained from PacBio Illumina NovaSeq data. This dataset...
