Marine biology: Genes in the glass house
Ronald P. Kiene1
Abstract
Sequence data on a second species of diatom provide abundant insights into the evolution and metabolic capabilities of this group, as well as into mechanisms of gene acquisition and diversification.
Diatoms are one of life's big success stories. These silica-depositing microalgae have been abundant for at least the past 180 million years.
