Plastid genome structure and phylogenomics of the freshwater red algal order Batrachospermales (Rhodophyta)

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract For the freshwater red algal order Batrachospermales, the number of plastid genomes available is relatively small compared to the number of genera. Fully assembled plastid genomes can provide insights into plastid evolution and crucial data for phylogenetic reconstruction.

Bioluminescence of the heterotrophic dinoflagellate Polykrikos kofoidii Chatton 1914 (Dinophyceae)

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Heterotrophic dinoflagellates are important predators of phytoplankton, and many species produce bioluminescence, which is thought to serve as an antipredator function. The present study investigated the bioluminescence of the heterotrophic dinoflagellate Polykrikos kofoidii, an important predator of toxic and bloom‐forming dinoflagellates ...

Increased prey choice is associated with higher kleptoplastidic reliance in Mesodinium ciliates

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Kleptoplastidic organisms display varying levels of reliance on stolen plastids, with some lineages evolving complex strategies for plastid (and other organelle) integration into metabolism. More complex methods of plastid integration typically coincide with greater prey specialization, but it remains unclear whether or how kleptoplastidic ...

The \u3cem\u3eChlamydomonas\u3c/em\u3e Genome Reveals the Evolution of Key Animal and Plant Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a unicellular green alga whose lineage diverged from land plants over 1 billion years ago. It is a model system for studying chloroplast-based photosynthesis, as well as the structure, assembly, and function of eukaryotic ...

Integrative taxonomy supports DNA barcoding in revealing an abundant cryptic species in the United States Coastal Plain

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We present the most densely sampled phylogeny of Carex section Lupulinae to date (107 specimens) and describe herein a new cryptic species for science from the southern United States, which is locally abundant and found in well‐explored and densely populated areas. Combining DNA sequences with morphometric data obtained from 299 samples, we Demonstrate

Dating the cyanobacterial ancestor of the chloroplast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Cyanobacteria have played a pivotal role in the history of life on Earth being the first organism to carry out oxygenic photosynthesis, which changed atmospheric chemistry and allowed the evolution of Eukarya.

Interplay between high‐energy quenching and state transitions in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: a single‐cell approach

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Studying cell‐to‐cell heterogeneity is essential to understand how unicellular organisms respond to stresses. We introduce a single‐cell analysis framework that enables the study of intercellular heterogeneity of photosynthetic traits, particularly their interactions within individual cells that have identical genotypes, cellular contexts and ...

Fascinating single‐cell red algae: models for evolution and adaptation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The unicellular red algae, Cyanidiophyceae, that diverged early during Archaeplastida (algal and plant) evolution, occupy a variety of extreme habitats that are inhospitable for most other eukaryotes. With the use of modern genomics and genetics methods, Cyanidiophyceae show a remarkable taxonomic diversity, share haplodiplophasic life cycles ...

Nova combinação em Colaconema (Colaconematales, Rhodophyta) e adição à flora de macroalgas marinhas do Nordeste do Brasil

open access: yesRodriguésia
Resumo A partir do estudo de epífitas de Acetabularia crenulata ocorrentes na Ilha de Itaparica, Bahia, Brasil, foram coletados espécimes do gênero Colaconema, os quais foram identificados como Colaconema hypneae (Börgesen) comb.
