This study shows that adaptation to complex environments with multiple stressors leads to lower fitness gains and higher fitness reductions under benign conditions compared to single stressors.

The paper identifies hypermutable regions in the nuclear genome of Bigelowiella natans, showing extreme mutation rate variation and a distinctive mutational signature in virus-derived sequences.

This study measures mutation rate and spectrum plasticity in Ostreococcus tauri under different environmental conditions, finding significant variation in SNM rates and spectra.

The paper presents a gapless, telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of Ostreococcus tauri RCC4221 with improved annotation of noncoding RNAs and epigenomic features.

This study develops a theoretical framework linking cellular nutrient economy to genome size evolution in phytoplankton, showing that 1-bp indels can be counterselected under minimal nutrient conditions.

This study shows that virus-host coexistence in phytoplankton is maintained through bet hedging, where susceptible and resistant phenotypes switch, allowing continuous growth of both microalga and virus.
