A streamlined and predominantly diploid genome in the tiny marine green alga Chloropicon primus

A streamlined and predominantly diploid genome in the tiny marine green alga Chloropicon primus

The Chloropicophyceae represent an important group of green algae in tropical oceans, but there is only limited genomic resource available. Here, the authors present the genome sequence of Chloropicon primus, revealing a diploid structure and the presence of a propionate detoxification pathway.
