A new lineage of non-photosynthetic green algae with extreme organellar genomes

A new lineage of non-photosynthetic green algae with extreme organellar genomes

Abstract Background The plastid genomes of the green algal order Chlamydomonadales tend to expand their non-coding regions, but this phenomenon is poorly understood. Here we shed new light on organellar genome evolution in Chlamydomonadales by studying a previously unknown non-photosynthetic lineage...
