Journal ArticleDOI
Genome sequence of the cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus marinus SS120, a nearly minimal oxyphototrophic genome
Alexis Dufresne,Marcel Salanoubat,Frédéric Partensky,François Artiguenave,Ilka M. Axmann,Valérie Barbe,Simone Duprat,Michael Y. Galperin,Eugene V. Koonin,Florence Le Gall,Kira S. Makarova,Martin Ostrowski,Sophie Oztas,Catherine Robert,Igor B. Rogozin,David J. Scanlan,Nicole Tandeau de Marsac,Jean Weissenbach,Patrick Wincker,Yuri I. Wolf,Wolfgang R. Hess +20 more
TL;DR: The genome of P. marinus SS120 is one of the two smallest genomes of a photosynthetic organism known to date and lacks many genes that are involved in photosynthesis, DNA repair, solute uptake, intermediary metabolism, motility, phototaxis, and other functions that are conserved among other cyanobacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity of Picoplanktonic Prasinophytes Assessed by Direct Nuclear SSU rDNA Sequencing of Environmental Samples and Novel Isolates Retrieved from Oceanic and Coastal Marine Ecosystems
Laure Guillou,Wenche Eikrem,Marie-Josèphe Chrétiennot-Dinet,Florence Le Gall,Ramon Massana,Khadidja Romari,Carlos Pedrós-Alió,Daniel Vaulot +7 more
TL;DR: A report of the overall diversity of picoeukaryotic prasinophytes reveals a group of ecologically important and diverse marine microorganims that are well represented by isolated cultures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecotype diversity in the marine picoeukaryote Ostreococcus (Chlorophyta, Prasinophyceae).
Francisco Rodríguez,Evelyne Derelle,Laure Guillou,Florence Le Gall,Daniel Vaulot,Hervé Moreau +5 more
TL;DR: Different growth rates and features strongly suggest distinct adaptation to environmental conditions encountered at surface and the bottom of the oceanic euphotic zone, reminiscent of that described in prokaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI
PhytoREF: a reference database of the plastidial 16S rRNA gene of photosynthetic eukaryotes with curated taxonomy
Johan Decelle,Sarah Romac,Rowena Stern,El Mahdi Bendif,Adriana Zingone,Stéphane Audic,Michel D Guiry,Laure Guillou,Désiré Tessier,Florence Le Gall,Priscillia Gourvil,Adriana Lopes dos Santos,Ian Probert,Daniel Vaulot,Colomban de Vargas,Richard Christen +15 more
TL;DR: The PhytoREF database is built that contains 6490 plastidial 16S rDNA reference sequences that originate from a large diversity of eukaryotes representing all known major photosynthetic lineages and mainly focuses on marine microalgae, but sequences from land plants and freshwater taxa were also included to broaden the applicability of Phy toREF to different aquatic and terrestrial habitats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of photosynthetic picoeukaryote diversity at open ocean sites in the Arabian Sea using a PCR biased towards marine algal plastids
Nicholas J. Fuller,Colin Campbell,David J. Allen,Frances Diana Pitt,Katrin Zwirglmaier,Florence Le Gall,Daniel Vaulot,David J. Scanlan +7 more
TL;DR: The finding of a wealth of novel clones related to the Chrysophyceae highlights the utility of a PCR biased towards marine algal plastids as a valuable complement to 18S rDNA based studies of PPE diversity.
