We report here the first mitogenome sequences for the chlorophyte class Chlorodendrophyceae. The mitogenomes of Tetraselmis sp. CCMP 881 and Scherffelia dubia (SAG 17.86) are 46,904 bp and 78,958 bp long, respectively, but their gene repertoires are ...

How and why DNA barcodes underestimate the diversity of microbial eukaryotes [PDF]
Background: Because many picoplanktonic eukaryotic species cannot currently be maintained in culture, direct sequencing of PCR-amplified 18S ribosomal gene DNA fragments from filtered sea-water has been successfully used to investigate the astounding ...

We report the complete chloroplast genome of the MED1 strain of Nephroselmis pyriformis from the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. At 111,026 bp, this genome is smaller and more compact than those of Nephroselmis olivacea and Nephroselmis astigmatica, and in ...

How endo- is endo-?: surface sterilization of delicate samples: a Bryopsis (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) case study [PDF]
In the search for endosymbiotic bacteria, elimination of ectosymbionts is a key point of attention. Commonly, the surface of the host itself or the symbiotic structures are sterilized with aggressive substances such as chlorine or mercury derivatives ...

Cold Stress Response: An Overview in Chlamydomonas
Low temperature (or cold) is one of the major environmental factors that limit the growth and development of many plants. Various plant species have evolved complex mechanisms to adjust to decreased temperature.

Anti-atherogenic properties associated with the antioxidant activity from the hydrophilic extracts of Halimeda incrassata (Chlorophyta, Bryopsidales) [PDF]
Seaweeds are a source of natural antioxidants having potential application in oxidative stress and associated diseases. In this work, anti-atherogenic properties associated with the antioxidant activity from the hydrophilic extracts of Halimeda ...

The Mechanisms of Codon Reassignments in Mitochondrial Genetic Codes [PDF]
Many cases of non-standard genetic codes are known in mitochondrial genomes. We carry out analysis of phylogeny and codon usage of organisms for which the complete mitochondrial genome is available, and we determine the most likely mechanism for codon ...
