This study compares local and wide genetic crosses in kelp to assess breeding effectiveness without introducing foreign genetic material.

This study performs a GWAS on sugar kelp to identify genetic markers associated with morphometric and metabolic traits, finding major-effect loci and polygenic traits for breeding programs.

The paper identifies three new H2A histone variants in Phaeophyceae algae using phylogenetic analysis, motif characterization, and epigenetic data.

The paper analyzes brown algal genomes to trace the origin and evolution of U/V sex chromosomes, revealing gene gain-driven evolution and the demise of these systems through hermaphroditism and gene hierarchy shifts.

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

This study identifies a BAR-RhoGAP protein essential for tip growth in the brown alga Ectocarpus, functioning independently of F-actin organization.
