Design and use of a new primer pair for the characterization of the cyanobacteria Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus communities targeting petB gene through metabarcoding approaches

MethodsX, 2023
During the last years, the application of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to search for specific genetic markers has become a crucial method for the characterization of microbial communities.

Independent colonizations of serpentine habitats shape heterogeneous genomic landscapes of lineage diversification

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 1008-1024, September 2026.
Comparing genomic and phenotypic patterns in three diploid plant species co‐occurring in serpentine and adjacent non‐serpentine habitats in the southern Iberian Peninsula reveals repeated, parallel colonization of serpentine habitats, with species‐specific isolation‐by‐distance, population ancestry, and phenotypic differentiation, highlighting ...

Snowball Earth, population bottleneck and Prochlorococcus evolution

, 2021
Prochlorococcus are the most abundant photosynthetic organisms in the modern ocean. A massive DNA loss event occurred in their early evolutionary history, leading to highly reduced genomes in nearly all lineages, as well as enhanced efficiency in both ...

Three-Dimensional Superresolution Imaging of the FtsZ Ring during Cell Division of the Cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus

mBio, 2017
Superresolution imaging has revealed subcellular structures and protein interactions in many organisms. However, superresolution microscopy with lateral resolution better than 100 nm has not been achieved in photosynthetic cells due to the interference ...

Co-culture and biogeography of Prochlorococcus and SAR11

, 2020
Prochlorococcus and SAR11 are among the smallest and most abundant organisms on Earth. With a combined global population of about 2.7 × 1028 cells, they numerically dominate bacterioplankton communities in oligotrophic ocean gyres and yet they have never

Identification of genomic islands in the genomes of five Prochlorococcus strains by multiple genomic comparison

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2010
In order to explore the role of horizontal gene transfer in the divergence of genomes within the genus Prochlorococcus, the genomes of five high light-adapted strains of Prochlorococcus were compared.

Patterns and implications of gene gain and loss in the evolution of Prochlorococcus. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2007
Prochlorococcus is a marine cyanobacterium that numerically dominates the mid-latitude oceans and is the smallest known oxygenic phototroph. Numerous isolates from diverse areas of the world's oceans have been studied and shown to be physiologically and ...

Novel isolates expand the physiological diversity of Prochlorococcus and illuminate its macroevolution

mBio
Prochlorococcus is a diverse picocyanobacterial genus and the most abundant phototroph on Earth. Its photosynthetic diversity divides it into high-light (HL)- or low-light (LL)-adapted groups representing broad phylogenetic grades—each composed of ...

Primary productivity coupled to oxic methane production in coastal waters of southern China

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Oxic methane (CH4) production (OMP) occurs in diverse oxygenated surface waters worldwide. However, phytoplankton‐driven OMP in natural marine environments remains poorly documented. During a research cruise in the highly productive southern East China Sea, we measured OMP by incubating phytoplankton‐rich surface waters and found that CH4 ...
