Over 100 whole-genome sequences from algae are published or soon to be published. The
rapidly increasing availability of these fundamental resources is changing how we …

Phytoplankton account for nearly half of global primary productivity and strongly affect the
global carbon cycle, yet little is known about the forces that drive the evolution of these …

Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) limitations induce neutral lipid accumulation and
membrane lipid remodeling in the domesticated oleaginous microalga Tisochrysis lutea …

Prymnesium parvum is a toxin-producing haptophyte that causes harmful algal blooms
worldwide, which are often associated with massive fish-kills and subsequent economic …

Oceanic phytoplankton species are generally composed of many strains, with intra-species
diversity consisting of genetic and phenotypic variability. Despite its importance in ecological …

Tisochrysis lutea (T. lutea, ex T. Isochrysis galbana or T-Iso) is a marine haptophyte that was
first isolated from Tahiti seawater. Because of its high content in lipids, this tropical species is …

Abstract Background Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile DNA sequences known as
drivers of genome evolution. Their impacts have been widely studied in animals, plants and …

Adaptive laboratory evolution is a powerful tool for microorganism improvement likely to
produce enhanced microalgae better tailored to their industrial uses. In this work, 12 wild …

Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) can control phytoplankton development and community
composition, with around half of microalgal species requiring this vitamin for growth. B12 …

Haptophyte algae, including coccolithophores, play key roles in global carbon cycling and
ecosystem. They exhibit exceptional morphological and functional diversity. However, their …
