The paper presents 28 high-quality genome sequences of Bathycoccus species, revealing structural variations and haplotype diversity, and provides genomic resources to study eukaryotic phytoplankton diversity and evolution.

The paper examines functional redundancy in marine microbiomes, finding that high-level synchrony and rhythmicity in metabolic functions emerge from lower-level complementary dynamics, supporting community resilience.

This study identifies RITMO1 as a key circadian regulator in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum, showing its impact on fluorescence, photosynthesis, and clock-controlled gene expression.

This study identifies PtbHLH1a, a bHLH-PAS protein in Phaeodactylum tricornutum, that regulates light-dependent diurnal rhythms, cell cycle, and gene expression, with conserved homologs across diatom species.
