Excited to share our latest publication on genetic transformation in Nannochloropsis and Microchloropsis!🦠 We demonstrate a robust sulfadiazine-based selection system enabling efficient transformation with minimal background growth in these important algal model species. shorturl.at/BGdov

Sulfadiazine selection enables high‐efficiency transformation in <fi>Nannochloropsis</fi> and <fi>Microchloropsis</fi>

Genetic engineering in the marine eustigmatophytes Nannochloropsis and Microchloropsis is constrained by intrinsic antibiotic resistance and reduced marker efficacy at high salinity. We show that mit....

Excited to share our latest preprint on #PhycologyFriday. We map out the carbon fixation pathway for the first time in a multicellular alga, the green seaweed Ulva, and reveal a unique Rubisco-Linker interaction in the pyrenoid, a chloroplast condensate. Below I summarize some key points. #seaweeds
