The Plastid Genome of the Cryptomonad Teleaulax amphioxeia.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Teleaulax amphioxeia is a photosynthetic unicellular cryptophyte alga that is distributed throughout marine habitats worldwide. This alga is an important plastid donor to the dinoflagellate Dinophysis caudata through the ciliate Mesodinium rubrum in the ...

Genome evolution of a tertiary dinoflagellate plastid.
PLoS ONE, 2011 The dinoflagellates have repeatedly replaced their ancestral peridinin-plastid by plastids derived from a variety of algal lineages ranging from green algae to diatoms. Here, we have characterized the genome of a dinoflagellate plastid of tertiary origin

Strategies for complete plastid genome sequencing [PDF]
Molecular Ecology Resources, 2017 Plastid sequencing is an essential tool in the study of plant evolution. This high-copy organelle is one of the most technically accessible regions of the genome, and its sequence conservation makes it a valuable region for comparative genome evolution ...

Complete Plastid Genome Sequence of the Brown Alga Undaria pinnatifida.
PLoS ONE, 2015 In this study, we fully sequenced the circular plastid genome of a brown alga, Undaria pinnatifida. The genome is 130,383 base pairs (bp) in size; it contains a large single-copy (LSC, 76,598 bp) and a small single-copy region (SSC, 42,977 bp), separated

Does the mode of plastid inheritance influence plastid genome architecture?
PLoS ONE, 2012 Plastid genomes show an impressive array of sizes and compactnesses, but the forces responsible for this variation are unknown. It has been argued that species with small effective genetic population sizes are less efficient at purging excess DNA from ...

Complete plastid genome of Cumathamnion serrulatum (Ceramiales, Rhodophyta)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 We report the complete plastid genome of Cumathamnion serrulatum, also known as Delesseria serrulata. The plastid genome was 174,192 bp in size. Annotation showed there were 193 protein coding genes, three ribosomal RNAs, and 29 transfer RNAs. One intron

Genomic Insights into Plastid Evolution [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2020 Abstract The origin of plastids (chloroplasts) by endosymbiosis stands as one of the most important events in the history of eukaryotic life. The genetic, biochemical, and cell biological integration of a cyanobacterial endosymbiont into a heterotrophic host eukaryote approximately a billion years ago paved the way for the evolution of ...
