Some microalgae are adapted to extremely acidic environments in which toxic metals are present at high levels. However, little is known about how acidophilic algae evolved from their respective neutrophilic ancestors by adapting to particular acidic environments. To gain insights into this issue, we determined the draft genome sequence of the acidophilic green alga <i>Chlamydomonas eustigma</i> and performed comparative genome and transcriptome analyses between <i>C</i><i>eustigma</i> and its ne ...[more]
