Integrated analysis of diel cycles, growth transitions, and magnesium stress in coccolithophore metabolism and calcification

Thesis

Coccolithophores play a critical role in global biogeochemical cycles through their dual capacities for photosynthesis and intracellular calcification. However, the molecular regulation of these processes across environmental responses, strain- and species-specific patterns, and trait interactions, remains insufficiently understood. This thesis investigates the regulatory mechanisms underlying coccolithophore metabolism across diel cycles, growth phase transitions, magnesium availability, and...
