Metabolic circuit map constructed from the metatranscriptome of dinoflagellate resting cyst persistence in marine sediments. (B) Schematic summary of transcriptionally active pathways revealed by metatranscriptomic analyses in this study.
Scientists enhance understanding of dinoflagellate cyst dormancy
Dinoflagellates play crucial roles in aquatic ecosystems, particularly as major contributors to harmful algal blooms. They can enter a dormant stage, known as the resting cyst stage, that allows them…
