Sex determination in Chlamydomonas
Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2007The sex-determination system of the unicellular green alga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, is governed by genes in the mating-type (MT) locus and entails additional genes located in autosomes. Gene expression is initiated by nitrogen starvation, and cells differentiate into plus or minus gametes within 6h.

Trends in Cell Biology, 1993
Chlamydomonas has long been a favourite organism for genetic and biochemical studies of flagellar motility and assembly, photosynthesis, and organelle genomes. With the recent development of procedures for the efficient transformation of its nuclear genome, Chlamydomonas has become accessible to a wide range of molecular genetic approaches, including ...

Gametic Differentiation of Chlamydomonas
1996Gametogenesis of Chlamydomonas results in the conversion of vegetative cells into gametes. This biological system offers the opportunity to study sexual differentiation at the molecular level in a single cell plant organism. This differentiation is controlled by the consecutive action of the two environmental signals—nitrogen starvation and light.

Current Genetics, 1992
We report the cloning and physical mapping of the mitochondrial genome of Chlamydomonas eugametos together with a comparison of the overall sequence structure of this DNA with the mitochondrial genome of Chlamydomonas moewusii, its closely related and interfertile relative. The C. eugametos mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has a 24 kb circular map and is thus

Germination of Zygospores in Chlamydomonas
Nature, 1949STUDIES on the life-cycles of green algae have frequently been considerably hampered by the difficulty of obtaining germination of the zygospores. This obstacle was encountered here during preliminary investigations to determine the possibility of using, for genetic studies, an isogamous, heterothallic strain of Chlamydomonas Moewussi Gerloff (isolated

THE NATURE OF SEXUALITY IN CHLAMYDOMONAS
American Journal of Botany, 1946IN 1933 MOEWUS published the first of an extensive series of articles on the nature of sexuality in, and the genetics of, freshwater algae. The algae he has studied include Chlamydomonas, Polytoma, Stephanosphaera, Protosiphon, Monostroma, and Botrydium. There has been widespread interest in the work of Moewus, especially that on Chlamydomonas, and the

Gamete Behaviour in Chlamydomonas
Nature, 1950Chlamydomonas Moewusii is a heterothallic species showing a difference in behaviour between the gametes of the two mating-types, of a kind not previously recorded.

Axonemal motility in Chlamydomonas
2015Motile cilia and flagella rapidly propagate bending waves and produce water flow over the cell surface. Their function is important for the physiology and development of various organisms including humans. The movement is based on the sliding between outer doublet microtubules driven by axonemal dyneins, and is regulated by various axonemal components ...

PHOTOREDUCTION BY CHLAMYDOMONAS
American Journal of Botany, 1954termed "photoreduction" by Gaffron (1940), who has studied this process in some detail particularly in Scenedesmus (Gaffron, 1945). This process has been shown to occur also in a number of other species of green, blue-green, and red algae (Frenkel and Rieger, 1951).

Vision evolved in motile, single-celled, green algae to enhance photosynthetic capability. A specialized structure within the cell, the eyespot, aids in the detection of light direction and is key to improving the efficiency of phototactic behavior. The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii eyespot is the most well-studied photoreceptive structure guiding cellular
