Zoospore diversity and sexual reproduction in the lichen-forming genus Trebouxia: From neglected evidence to new facts. [PDF]

Plant Biol (Stuttg)
This study clarifies the role of flagellate cells in four Trebouxia species. Using innovative techniques, we could distinguish between zoospores and gametes, providing the first detailed evidence of sex. Abstract Trebouxia is one of the most frequent genera of green microalgae that occur as photobionts in lichens.

Characterization of Chlorella vulgaris (Trebouxiophyceae) associated microbial communities¹ [PDF]

Journal of Phycology, 2020
Microalgae exhibit extensive potential for counteracting imminent challenges in the nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and biomaterial sectors, but lack economic viability. Biotechnological systems for contamination control could advance the economic viability of microalgal feedstock, but the selection of suitable strains that sustainably promote ...

Genomic analysis of an ultrasmall freshwater green alga, Medakamo hakoo

Communications Biology, 2023
Multi-omic and evolutionary analyses of the ultrasmall green algae, Medakomo hakoo, suggest that it might belong to a new genus within the class Trebouxiophyceae and provide further insight into the essential genes for microalgae.

A Minority of Desert Cyanobacteria and Algae Is Responsible for the Bulk of CO₂ Fixation. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
ABSTRACT Cyanobacteria and algae are the major photosynthetic organisms in deserts because they survive desiccation, high solar radiation and extreme temperature fluctuations better than other plants. Under favourable conditions, desert cyanobacteria and algae evidently photosynthesise.

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the photobiont microalga Trebouxia sp. 'A48' from the lichen Xanthoria parietina. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Lichens are symbiotic assemblies consisting of multiple organisms, chiefly a fungus and a photosynthetic microorganism, or photobiont. Among diverse photobionts, the most prevalent is the chlorophyte alga Trebouxia. We produced a chromosome‐level assembly of Trebouxia sp. ‘A48’, a photobiont of Xanthoria parietina. The genome was assembled into

Chloroplast Genome Traits Correlate With Organismal Complexity and Ecological Traits in Chlorophyta

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
A positive relationship between cell size and chloroplast genome size within chloroplast-bearing protists has been hypothesized in the past and shown in some case studies, but other factors influencing chloroplast genome size during the evolution of ...

Clan CD of cysteine peptidases as an example of evolutionary divergences in related protein families across plant clades [PDF]

, 2010
Comparative genomic analyses are powerful tools that can be used to analyze the presence, conservation, and evolution of protein families and to elucidate issues concerning their function.
