Plastid Genome Evolution of Two Colony-Forming Benthic <i>Ochrosphaera neapolitana</i> Strains (Coccolithales, Haptophyta)

Coccolithophores are well-known haptophytes that produce small calcium carbonate coccoliths, which in turn contribute to carbon sequestration in the marine environment. Despite their important ecological role, only two of eleven haptophyte plastid genomes are from coccolithophores, and those two bel...
