The Genome of the Diatom Thalassiosira Pseudonana: Ecology, Evolution, and Metabolism

E. Virginia Armbrust, +47 more
- 01 Oct 2004 - 
TL;DR: The 34 million-base-pair draft nuclear genome of the marine diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana and its 129 thousand-base pair plastid and 44 thousand base-pair mitochondrial genomes were reported in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Phaeodactylum genome reveals the evolutionary history of diatom genomes

Chris Bowler, +78 more
- 13 Nov 2008 - 
TL;DR: Analysis of molecular divergence compared with yeasts and metazoans reveals rapid rates of gene diversification in diatoms, and documents the presence of hundreds of genes from bacteria, likely to provide novel possibilities for metabolite management and for perception of environmental signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating carbon, nitrogen, protein, and chlorophyll a from volume in marine phytoplankton

TL;DR: The data can be used to determine carbon, nitrogen, protein, and Chl a estimates from field material that has been fixed with Lugol’s iodine, observed live, optically measured, or Coulter Counter measured; however, the variability in published data suggests that any of these estimates will have a large potential error.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of an artificial seawater medium: improvements in enriched seawater, artificial water over the last two decades

TL;DR: It is concluded that changes to the enrichment portion of the recipe have significantly improved this artificial seawater medium and that it can be used to grow an even wider range of coastal and open ocean species.
