This study explores the eco-genomic diversity of Chrysophyceae algae, revealing their evolutionary adaptations and gene markers linked to trophic strategies and environmental responses.

This study characterizes a novel microalgal protein xATPA, showing its environmental prevalence and functional role in plastidial physiology without ATP synthase activity.

The paper investigates the prevalence and environmental abundance of the TSET membrane trafficking complex in five eukaryotic groups, showing its presence in photosynthetic organisms and its potential role in marine ecosystems.

The paper identifies a new MCF subfamily in diatoms, showing diverse localization and potential roles in nitrate assimilation.

DiatOmicBase integrates public diatom omics data to connect genes to functional processes, enabling exploratory analysis and experiment design.

The paper integrates transcriptome data to annotate the Phaeodactylum tricornutum genome, identifies novel genes and alternative splicing, and explores the evolutionary origins of diatoms.
