What Was Old Is New Again: The Pennate Diatom <i>Haslea ostrearia</i> (Gaillon) Simonsen in the Multi-Omic Age by Noujoud Gabed, Frédéric Verret, Aurélie Peticca, Igor Kryvoruchko, Romain Gastineau, Orlane Bosson, Julie Séveno, Olga Davidovich, Nikolai Davidovich, Andrzej Witkowski, Jon Bent Kristoffersen, Amel Benali, Efstathia Ioannou, Aikaterini Koutsaviti, Vassilios Roussis, Hélène Gâteau, Suliya Phimmaha, Vincent Leignel, Myriam Badawi, Feriel Khiar, Nellie Francezon, Mostefa Fodil, Pamela Pasetto, Jean-Luc Mouget

“…Regarding fundamental prospects, researchers use model organisms as standards to study cellular and physiological processes in other organisms, and there is a growing and crucial need for more, new and unconventional model organisms to better correspond to the diversity of the tree of life. The present work, thus, advocates for establishing <i>H. ostrearia</i> as a new model organism by presenting its pros and cons—i.e., the interesting aspects of this peculiar diatom (representative of benthic-epiphytic phytoplankton, with original behavior and chemodiversity, controlled sexual reproduction, fundamental and applied-oriented importance, reference genome, and transcriptome will soon be available); it will also present the difficulties encountered before this becomes a reality as it is for other diatom models (the genetics of the species in its infancy, the transformation feasibility to be explored, the routine methods needed to cryopreserve strains of interest).…”
