This paper develops a CRISPR-Cas9 method to generate lncRNA knockouts in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum, demonstrating its utility in studying lncRNA function under phosphate stress.

LncPlankton V1.0 compiles 2.2 million lncRNAs from 414 marine plankton species using ten coding potential prediction tools, providing a resource for comparative and functional studies.

This study analyzes 60 brown algal genomes to identify genomic innovations and evolutionary patterns that enabled their adaptation to coastal ecosystems.

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