Genome assembly and annotation of microalga <i>Nannochloropsis oceanica</i> C018.

Abstract

The microalga Nannochloropsis is an important organism for algae-based biocommodity production of food, feed, and fuel, among other products. Using PacBio Revio, we sequenced, assembled, and annotated a 26.41 Mbp Nannochloropsis oceanica C018 genome.

Assistant Research Professor in Molecular Genetics and Microbiology

Microbial communities are present in almost all environments, and the full extent of their impact is largely unknown. Better understanding of how microorganisms interact with each other, their environment, and their hosts will provide immeasurable insights into all aspects of biomedical research.

My goal as Assistant Director in Duke Microbiome Center is to help facilitate efficient and effective study of these communities and their microbial constituents, and to develop novel techniques and approaches in order to enhance microbiome research across campus.

Our group broadly studies the abundance, diversity and activity of marine microbes. We are biological oceanographers, marine molecular ecologists, marine microbiologists and biogeochemists.  Our research focuses on the marine cyanobacteria Prochlorococcus, the most abundant phytoplankton in the open oceans and an excellent model marine microbe, as well as the biotechnological applications of marine microalgae.  We are at the Marine Laboratory as part of the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University.
