Journal ArticleDOI
Prochlorococcus, a Marine Photosynthetic Prokaryote of Global Significance
TL;DR: The present review critically assesses the basic knowledge acquired about Prochlorococcus both in the ocean and in the laboratory to determine its adaptation to nutrient-deprived environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enumeration and Cell Cycle Analysis of Natural Populations of Marine Picoplankton by Flow Cytometry Using the Nucleic Acid Stain SYBR Green I.
TL;DR: The novel dye SYBR Green I binds specifically to nucleic acids and can be excited by blue light (488-nm wavelength) and has the advantage of clearly discriminating both heterotrophic bacteria and autotrophic Prochlorococcus cells, even in oligotrophic waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome analysis of the smallest free-living eukaryote Ostreococcus tauri unveils many unique features
Evelyne Derelle,Conchita Ferraz,Stephane Rombauts,Pierre Rouzé,Alexandra Z. Worden,Steven Robbens,Frédéric Partensky,Sven Degroeve,Sophie Echeynié,Richard G. Cooke,Yvan Saeys,Jan Wuyts,Kamel Jabbari,Chris Bowler,Olivier Panaud,Benoît Piégu,Steven G. Ball,Jean-Philippe Ral,François-Yves Bouget,Gwenael Piganeau,Bernard De Baets,André Picard,Michel Delseny,Jacques G. Demaille,Yves Van de Peer,Hervé Moreau +25 more
TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of an ancient member of this lineage, the unicellular green alga Ostreococcus tauri, is unveiled, making O. tauri an ideal model system for research on eukaryotic genome evolution, including chromosome specialization and green lineage ancestry.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genome of a motile marine Synechococcus
Brian Palenik,B. Brahamsha,Frank W. Larimer,Frank W. Larimer,Miriam Land,Miriam Land,Loren Hauser,Loren Hauser,Patrick S. G. Chain,Patrick S. G. Chain,Jane Lamerdin,Jane Lamerdin,Warren Regala,Warren Regala,Eric E. Allen,Eric E. Allen,Jay McCarren,Ian T. Paulsen,Alexis Dufresne,Frédéric Partensky,Eric A. Webb,John B. Waterbury +21 more
TL;DR: The genome of WH8102 seems to have been greatly influenced by horizontal gene transfer, partially through phages, and is more of a generalist than two related marine cyanobacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological Genomics of Marine Picocyanobacteria
David J. Scanlan,Martin Ostrowski,Sophie Mazard,Alexis Dufresne,Alexis Dufresne,Alexis Dufresne,Laurence Garczarek,Laurence Garczarek,Wolfgang R. Hess,Anton F. Post,Martin Hagemann,Ian T. Paulsen,Frédéric Partensky,Frédéric Partensky +13 more
TL;DR: This review puts the current knowledge of marine picocyanobacterial genomics into an environmental context and presents previously unpublished genomic information arising from extensive genomic comparisons in order to provide insights into the adaptations of these marine microbes to their environment and how they are reflected at the genomic level.
