Abstract Picocystis salinarum is an early‐diverging chlorophyte and the sole described member of the Picocystophyceae, frequently dominating hypersaline and alkaline lakes despite extreme physicochemical constraints. To elucidate the genomic foundations of its ecological success, we generated a fully annotated, chromosome‐scale nuclear genome assembly ...

Lithochloron, a new genus of green algae residing in coral skeleton (Cladophorales, Chlorophyta)
Abstract Coral skeletons host diverse microbial communities, including endolithic green algae that contribute to holobiont functioning. The siphonous green alga Ostreobium (Bryopsidales) is arguably the best‐known coral endolith, but recent environmental sequencing has indicated that other lineages of green algae may also inhabit the coral skeleton ...

Translation and Translational Control in Dinoflagellates
Dinoflagellates are unicellular protists that feature a multitude of unusual nuclear features, including large genomes, packaging of DNA without histones, and multiple gene copies organized as tandem gene arrays.

Phytoplankton exudates play an important role in pelagic ecology and biogeochemical cycles of elements. Exuded compounds fuel the microbial food web and often encompass bioactive secondary metabolites like sex pheromones, allelochemicals, antibiotics, or

Interaction between Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) causing dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae [PDF]
The present study hopes to develop a further understanding regarding algal-bacteria interactions as an option for bioremediation. After the use of chemicals against the events of the red tide proved to be impractical due to its detrimental effects on the

SUMMARY The dinophyte genus Scrippsiella is a common and ecologically important component of coastal microplankton communities, yet its species diversity in the Black Sea remains insufficiently resolved due to morphological similarity among taxa and the scarcity of integrative taxonomic studies. Here, we describe Scrippsiella phycobiana sp. nov., a new

The dinoflagellate Neoceratium is frequently observed in oligotrophic subtropical gyres (OSGs) where major inorganic nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus are depleted in the surface waters.

Biosynthesis and Genetic Tuning of Guanine Crystals via Metabolic Engineering of Yeast
We demonstrate how yeast cells can be harnessed as cellular factories for the synthesis of optically functional guanine crystals, where genetic editing is used to tune crystal size, order and optical properties. This demonstrates a powerful new biosynthetic approach for the development of sustainable and biocompatible optical pigments, which utilizes ...

Abstract Oceanic particle size distributions (PSDs) link plankton community structure to biogeochemical cycling. Although the influence of community composition on size spectra is well recognized in theoretical approaches, long‐term empirical evidence connecting taxon‐specific variability to bulk PSD structure remains limited.
