Both species are approximately 1.2 mu m in diameter and have two unequal flagella; the longer flagellum bears tubular hairs, whereas the shorter is smooth. The flagellar basal apparatus is restricted to two basal bodies, and there is no transitional helix. Cells are naked, devoid of walls or siliceous structures. The internal cellular organization is simple with a single plastid containing a ring genophore and a girdle lamella, one mitochondrion with tubular cristae, and one Golgi apparatus close to the basal bodies. The Mediterranean and the Pacific species differ in the insertion angle between their flagella and their pattern of swimming, these differences possibly being linked to each other. Analyses of the SSU rDNA gene place the two strains as a sister group to the diatoms, Moreover, pigment analyses confirm this position, as fucoxanthin is found as the major carotenoid in both lineages. These data strongly suggest that the ancestral heterokont that gave rise to the diatom lineage was probably a biflagellated unicell.}, keywords = {10$_\textrmb$est, 1999, Bolidophyceae, CELL-CYCLE, CHRYSOPHYCEAE, diatoms, DIVINYL-CHLOROPHYLL, FINE-STRUCTURE, FLAGELLAR APPARATUS, Heterokonta, Marine, marine picoeukaryotes, oligotrophic ocean, rcc, RNA, SBR$_\textrmP$hyto, sbr?hyto, SEQUENCE, sp-nov, stramenopiles, ultrastructure}, doi = {10.1046/j.1529-8817.1999.3520368.x}, author = {Guillou, L and Chr{\'e}tiennot-Dinet, M.-J. and Medlin, L K and Claustre, H and Loiseaux-de Go{\"e}r, S and Vaulot, D} } @article {Guillou1999a, title = {Diversity and abundance of Bolidophyceae (Heterokonta) in two oceanic regions}, journal = {Applied and Environmental Microbiology}, volume = {65}, number = {10}, year = {1999}, note = {ISBN: 0099-2240 Publisher: Amer Soc Microbiology tex.address: 1325 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20005-4171, USA tex.mendeley-tags: 1999,rcc,sbr?hyto}, pages = {4528{\textendash}4536}, abstract = {The diversity and abundance of the Bolidophyceae (Heterokonta), a newly described picoplanktonic algal class which is a sister group to the diatoms, was assessed in the equatorial Pacific Ocean and in the Mediterranean Sea by culture isolation, molecular biology techniques, and pigment analyses. Eight strains of Bolidophyceae were isolated in culture from different mesotrophic and oligotrophic areas. The corresponding small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene sequences allowed us to design two probes specific for the Bolidophyceae. These probes have been used in natural samples (i) to selectively amplify and detect Bolidophyceae sequences and (ii) to quantify the relative abundance of Bolidophyceae within the picoeukaryote community. Sequences available to date indicate that the class Bolidophyceae comprises at least three different clades, two corresponding to the previously described species Bolidomonas pacifica and Bolidomonas mediterranea and the third one corresponding to a subspecies of B. Pacifica. Amplification of the SSU rRNA gene from natural samples with universal primers and hybridization using a Bolidomonas-specific probe followed by a eukaryote-specific probe allowed us to estimate the contribution of the Bolidophyceae to the eukaryotic DNA in both Pacific and Mediterranean waters to be lower than 1\%. Similarly, high-performance liquid chromatography analyses of fucoxanthin, the major carotenoid present in Bolidophyceae, indicated that less than 4\% of the total chlorophyll a in the picoplanktonic fraction in the equatorial Pacific was due to Bolidophyceae. Consequently, although strains of Bolidophyceae have been isolated from samples collected at several stations, this new class seems to have been a minor component of the natural picoeukaryotic populations in the ecosystems investigated, at least during the periods sampled.}, keywords = {1999, ATLANTIC, BACTERIOPLANKTON, community structure, flow-cytometry, MOLECULAR PHYLOGENY, PACIFIC, phytoplankton, PIGMENT SIGNATURES, rcc, RNA GENE SEQUENCE, SBR$_\textrmP$hyto, sbr?hyto, ULTRAPHYTOPLANKTON}, doi = {10.1128/AEM.65.10.4528-4536.1999}, author = {Guillou, L and Moon-van der Staay, S Y and Claustre, H and Partensky, F and Vaulot, D} } @article {Chretiennot-Dinet1995, title = {A new marine picoeucaryote: Ostreococcus tauri gen. et sp. nov.
