Cyanidioschyzon merolae is an extremophilic red microalga which grows in low-pH, high-temperature environments. The basis of C. merolae's environmental resilience not fully characterized, including whether this alga uses a carbon-concentrating mechanism (CCM). To determine if CCM, we measured CO2 uptake parameters using open-path infra-red gas analyzer and compared them to values expected the absence CCM. These measurements analysis indicated that had gas-exchange characteristics...

Abstract Premise The selection of Arabidopsis as a model organism played pivotal role in advancing genomic science. competing frameworks to select an agricultural‐ or ecological‐based species were rejected, favor building knowledge that would facilitate genome‐enabled research. Methods Here, we examine the ability models based on gene expression data predict tissue identity other flowering plants. Comparing different machine learning algorithms, trained and tested achieved near perfect...

ABSTRACT The selection of Arabidopsis as a model organism played pivotal role in advancing genomic science, firmly establishing the cornerstone today ‘s plant molecular biology. Competing frameworks to select an agricultural- or ecological-based species, decentralize science and study multitude diverse were selected against favor building core knowledge species that would facilitate genome-enabled research could assumedly be transferred other plants. Here, we examine ability models based on...

Abstract The thermoacidophilic red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae survives its challenging environment likely in part by operating a carbon-concentrating mechanism (CCM). Here, we demonstrated that C. ’s cellular affinity for CO 2 is stronger than rubisco . This provided further evidence operates CCM while lacking structures and functions characteristic of CCMs other organisms. To test how such could function, created mathematical compartmental model simple distinct from those previously...
