Developping Fucus embryo labelled with the orange fluorescent probe SBIS (autofluorescent chloroplasts in red).
📣 SBIS, a new vital fluorescent probe for live imaging of #brownalgae #kelp in 4D. Just published in J. Cell Science by the Charrier team at the @igflyon.bsky.social. Download PDF on our team webpage here ➡️ shorturl.at/H5A9p

New research: With ancient origins & surprising flexibility, #BrownAlgae reveal a compelling story of sex chromosome evolution. This could rewrite how we view sex determination. Learn more: s.gwdg.de/YDoZ3L
Congrats to @agalip.bsky.social & Josue Barrera for their work in @natecoevo.nature.com
Bull Kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) is a brown algae that can grow up to 118 ft tall, with a single hollow stalk topped by a carbon-monoxide-filled pneumatocyst and dozens of long blades.

Cool! A burst of genome evolution (HGT, new genes, expansion of gene families) on their origin. The study also highlights the important role of viruses in shaping brown algae evolution. Congrats to all authors! #multicellularity #brownalgae #protistsonSky

It really was a fantastic talk! Many thanks again to @sodail.bsky.social and Susana Coelho for sharing their fascinating research and a bit of the behind-the-scenes challenges of working with non-model organism like #brownalgae
You can (re)watch their talk anytime: www.youtube.com/live/bobCLEJ...

#ScientificBreakthrough Researchers from @MPI_Bio uncover the unique sex-determination gene in #BrownAlgae. Their findings highlight the unexpected shared #genetic toolkit across algae, plants & animals. https://twtr.to/311ah #Evolution #Biology #Research @ScienceMagazine
As part of the @PAW_Germany, we’re happy tointroduce Josué Barrera-Redondo (@el_Dr_Barrera). He works in the Department of Algal Development & Evolution with #brownalgae genomics to understand the patterns and causes behind the birth of new genes.
First day of @PAW_Germany! May we introduce @CDuchene3675: Carole is an algae-loving post-doc at @MPI_Bio, where she studies the infection of #brownalgae by marine viruses. She wants to understand the mechanisms that couple the virus cycle to the algal life cycle.
Call for applications! ⏰ Deadline is tomorrow!
Apply now for the #PhDProject "Mechanisms driving the interaction between #marinevirus and #brownalgae" with Susana Coelho, or join many other exciting projects of our #IMPRS #PhDProgram. Read more 👉...

Our Director Susana Coelho conducts research on algal development & evolution. The largest #brownalgae form natural #kelpforests. Find out why kelp forests are so important for us as humans! The OSPAR commission now considers kelp forests to be crucial and endangered habitats.
