Stable Nuclear Transformation System for the Coccolithophorid Alga Pleurochrysis carterae

Of the three dominant marine microalgal groups, dinoflagellates and diatoms can undergo genetic transformation; however, no transformation method has been established for haptophytes to date. Here, we report the first stable genetic transformation of a coccolithophore, Pleurochrysis carterae, by mea...
