This study sequenced the Spirogyra pratensis genome and analyzed its transcriptional responses to light and temperature, revealing unique cytokinetic processes and plastid division mechanisms.

The paper sequences 43 new transcriptomes of Zygnematophyceae algae and builds a phylogenomic tree, revealing deep genetic structure and ancient radiations within this algal class.

The paper studies stress response kinetics in early land plants and their algal relatives using multi-omics data to infer ancient gene regulatory networks.

This study presents a phylogenomic analysis of Klebsormidiophyceae, revealing a novel four-order system and estimating the origin of the first multicellular streptophytes over 900 million years ago.

The plastid genomes of two free-living chlamydomonadalean algae show different evolutionary trajectories after losing photosynthesis.
