Li M.M., 2024, Unraveling the genetic mechanisms of algal adaptation: insights from genomics and transcriptomics, International Journal of Aquaculture, 14(2): 62-72 (doi: 10.5376/ija.2024.14.0008)

Algal adaptability is a key factor in global ecological balance, and studying its adaptation mechanisms provides significant biological insights. This study aims to reveal the genetic mechanisms behind algae's adaptation to various environmental stresses through genomics and transcriptomics. It specifically describes the structure of algal genomes and transcriptomic features, and through case studies, shows how algae adjust gene expression to cope with environmental stresses, particularly focusing on stress response genes, regulatory networks, and evolutionary adaptations. Moreover, by integrating genomic and transcriptomic data analysis, the study enhances the overall understanding of algal adaptation mechanisms. The results not only deepen the understanding of algal genetic adaptability but also advance algal biotechnology, providing new strategies for environmental protection and sustainable utilization of biological resources.
