Multi-omic insights into the cellular response of Phaeodactylum tricornutum (Bacillariophyta) strains under grazing pressure.

ABSTRACT:

Background/aims

Phaeodactylum tricornutum, a model organism of diatoms, plays a crucial role in Earth's primary productivity. Investigating its cellular response to grazing pressure is highly significant for the marine ecological environment. Furthermore, the integration of multi-omics approaches has enhanced the understanding of its response mechanism.

Methods

To assess the molecular and cellular responses of P.tricornutum to grazer presence, we conducted transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses, combined with phenotypic data from previous studies. Sequencing data were obtained by Illumina RNA sequencing, TMT Labeled Quantitative Proteomics and Non-targeted Metabolomics, and WGCNA analysis and statistical analysis were performed.
