Project description:Our paper presents the results of a study in which we used whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS), RNA-Seq (i.e. transcriptomics), high-CO2 physiology experiments, and spatiotemporally separated samples isolated in situ (i.e. directly from the ocean) to examine the metabolic potential of genome-wide cytosine (5mC) methylation (i.e. epigenomics), its potential impacts to transcriptional dynamics under both present-day and future ocean acidification conditions, and its biogeographic conservation in the globally-significant, biogeochemically-critical marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium.

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Trichodesmium erythraeum IMS101 during a 24-hr light and dark cycle. The diel gene expression analyzed in this study is further described in Muñoz-Marin, M., I. N. Shilova, T. Shi, H. Farnelid & J. P. Zehr. 2019. The transcriptional cycle is suited to daytime N2 fixation in the unicellular cyanobacterium “Candidatus Atelocyanobacterium thalassa” (UCYN-A). mBio 10:e02495-18. https://doi.org/10.1128/mBio.02495-18.
