Comparative Genomics of the Pennate Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum   [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2005
Abstract Diatoms are one of the most important constituents of phytoplankton communities in aquatic environments, but in spite of this, only recently have large-scale diatom-sequencing projects been undertaken. With the genome of the centric species Thalassiosira pseudonana available since mid-2004, accumulating sequence information for ...

Exploring the Potential of Microalgae as Feed Ingredients for Sustainable Aquaculture: A Review of Nutritional and Environmental Benefits

Aquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The increase and rapid population growth and higher demand for fish are driving the aquaculture industry to rapid expansion. One of the main challenges in aquaculture is to ensure sustainable feeds for fish in different aquaculture systems. Historically, aquafeed ingredients were fishmeal and fish oil, but the increase in price and the decrease in ...

Photoacclimation strategies in Phaeodactylum tricornutum biofilms

Algal Research
Microalgal biofilms are a promising alternative to conventional suspended cultures, offering increased biomass densities with reduced water and energy demands for cultivation and harvesting. However, to fully demonstrate their interest for large-scale production, a better understanding of the impact of operational factors on biofilm structure is ...

Potential of CRISPR/Cas9 Genome Engineering for Biofuel Production From Economically Relevant Algae

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The worldwide energy demand continues to rise, while reliance on fossil fuels remains unsustainable due to global warming, declining reserves and rising oil prices. This has intensified the search for renewable alternatives. Among these, microscopic algae have emerged as a promising feedstock for third‐generation biofuels.

Integrated Regulatory and Metabolic Networks of the Marine Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum Predict the Response to Rising CO₂ Levels

mSystems, 2017
Diatoms are eukaryotic microalgae that are responsible for up to 40% of the ocean’s primary productivity. How diatoms respond to environmental perturbations such as elevated carbon concentrations in the atmosphere is currently poorly understood.

Plankton do not care: Minimal effects of ocean liming on plankton growth and grazing in the Eastern Mediterranean

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue S2, Page S242-S257, December 2025.
Abstract Increasing CO2 emissions have led to the development of CO2 removal strategies to counteract ocean acidification. Among these, ocean alkalinity enhancement techniques, particularly ocean liming, may represent a promising approach to restore seawater pH and boost CO2 sequestration.

Aquatic Productivity Signals in the Kolyma River (Northeastern Siberia) From O2/Ar Ratios and O2 Triple Isotopologues

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Arctic rivers are intricate water networks that chemically and biologically process carbon before releasing it as carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere or carrying it to the ocean. Primary producers use inorganic carbon to build biomass at the base of the trophic chain.
