TL;DR: An evolutionary scenario involving an ancestral red alga that was driven by early ecological forces to lose genes, introns, and intergenetic DNA is proposed; this loss was followed by an expansion of genome size as a consequence of activity of transposable elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly dynamic exon shuffling in candidate pathogen receptors ... what if brown algae were capable of adaptive immunity
TL;DR: The Ectocarpus ROCO and NB-ARC–TPR families are excellent candidates for being involved in recognition/transduction events linked to immunity, and it is hypothesized that brown algae may generate their immune repertoire via controlled somatic recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prostaglandin A2 triggers a strong oxidative burst in Laminaria: a novel defense inducer in brown algae?
Antonios Zambounis,Emmanuel Gaquerel,Martina Strittmatter,Jean-Pierre Salaün,Philippe Potin,Frithjof C. Küpper +5 more
TL;DR: Despite the very strong oxidative response, rather few effects at other levels of signal transduction pathways could be identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic stress and disease resistance in the genome model marine seaweed Ectocarpus siliculosus
TL;DR: Observations imply that E. siliculosus does react transcriptionally to chronic PUFA exposure, however, these inducible defenses may not be as potent as the ones of L. digitata, or they might be efficiently bypassed by Eu.
