The #diatom genus Nitzschia lost photosynthesis to become free-living heterotrophs. This study shows how #HGT from marine bacteria, followed by #GeneDuplication & #neofunctionalization, allowed them to catabolize #alginate & live off brown algal polysaccharides @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/41WaW8e

Interesting preprint dating whole genome duplications in vertebrate evolution relative to hagfishes, which I had missed this Spring:
• 1 genome duplication before, 1 after hagfish divergence, +2 at the basis on cyclostomes
• nice investigation of relation between genome duplication and morphological diversification (not much).

Marjorie Liénard: method to express invertebrate opsin proteins in vitro, allowing to show spectral shifts in opsins in butterflies, with notably 2 paralogs of LW providing differentiation in function between the dorsal and ventral parts of the eye https://www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.2008986118 #SMBE2023 #opsin #GeneDuplication #paralog
