Abstract



Sunlight drives virtually all life on the Earth’s surface, with about 50% of primary productivity occurring in marine systems. Yet, this traditional view of phototrophy changed radically with the discovery of marine bacterial rhodopsins (i.e., proteorhodopsins; PR), over twenty years ago. PRs are simple light-driven proton pumps present in over 80% of surface bacterioplankton, which allow them to transform light into biochemical energy.



Combining culture-based physiology studies with (meta)-genomics, (meta)-transcriptomics, and environmental quantifications we are just starting to understand the role that PR-based photoheterotrophy plays in the ocean. In this presentation, I will discuss the knowns and unknowns of PR-phototrophy and what we are starting to learn from looking at its natural distributions in different oceanographic basins, ranging from extreme ultraoligotrophic regions to high productivity environments

Session 3: Making of Platynereis into a Model Organism.



(Leslie Pan, Arendt’s lab, EMBL)



 



The Arendt group is interested in the evolution of central nervous system in bilateral animals. With sequencing technologies becoming more accessible, we have built extensive genomics resources that has allowed us to dive deeper into cell type evolution. Leslie will introduce different published and unpublished works from the group, and how we leveraged the different sequencing technologies.



1. Assembling the genome of a highly heterozygous worm



2. Single cell transcriptomes for cross species comparison



3. In field genotyping/sequencing for species identification



15:15 – 16:15
