Evolutionary Dynamics of Cryptophyte Plastid Genomes [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2017 Cryptophytes are an ecologically important group of largely photosynthetic unicellular eukaryotes. This lineage is of great interest to evolutionary biologists because their plastids are of red algal secondary endosymbiotic origin and the host cell retains four different genomes (host nuclear, mitochondrial, plastid, and red algal nucleomorph).

Rhodopsin-Mediated Photoreception in Cryptophyte Flagellates [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2005 We show that phototaxis in cryptophytes is likely mediated by a two-rhodopsin-based photosensory mechanism similar to that recently demonstrated in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and for the first time, to our knowledge, report spectroscopic and charge movement properties of cryptophyte algal rhodopsins.

Protein Targeting into the Complex Plastid of Cryptophytes [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2006 The cryptophyte Guillardia theta harbors a plastid surrounded by four membranes. This turns protein targeting of nucleus-encoded endosymbiont localized proteins into quite a challenge, as the respective precursors have to pass either all four membranes to reach the plastid stroma or only the outermost two membranes to enter the periplastidal ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The Gerlache Strait is a narrow channel that separates the western coast of the Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) from the Palmer Archipelago. This area is characterized by the presence of interconnected fjords, bays, islands, and channels that serve as a refuge

Toxins, 2018 Kleptoplastic mixotrophic species of the genus Dinophysis are cultured by feeding with the ciliate Mesodinium rubrum, itself a kleptoplastic mixotroph, that in turn feeds on cryptophytes of the Teleaulax/Plagioselmis/Geminigera (TPG) clade.

High Grazing Rates on Cryptophyte Algae in Chesapeake Bay
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 Cryptophyte algae are globally distributed photosynthetic flagellates found in freshwater, estuarine, and neritic ecosystems. While cryptophytes can be highly abundant and are consumed by a wide variety of protistan predators, few studies have sought to ...
