The ongo- ing environmental metabarcoding revolution opens the perspective for holistic ecosystems biological studies of these organisms, in particular the unicellular microalgae that often lack distinctive morphological characters and have complex life cycles. To interpret environmental sequences, metabarcoding necessarily relies on taxonomically curated databases containing reference sequences of the targeted gene (or barcode) from identified organisms. To date, no such reference framework exists for photosynthetic eukaryotes. In this study, we built the PhytoREF data- base that contains 6490 plastidial 16S rDNA reference sequences that originate from a large diversity of eukaryotes representing all known major photosynthetic lineages. We compiled 3333 amplicon sequences available from public databases and 879 sequences extracted from plastidial genomes, and generated 411 novel sequences from cultured marine microalgal strains belonging to different eukaryotic lineages. A total of 1867 environmental Sanger 16S rDNA sequences were also included in the database. Stringent quality filtering and a phylogeny-based taxonomic classifica- tion were applied for each 16S rDNA sequence. The database mainly focuses on marine microalgae, but sequences from land plants (representing half of the PhytoREF sequences) and freshwater taxa were also included to broaden the applicability of PhytoREF to different aquatic and terrestrial habitats. PhytoREF, accessible via a web interface (http://phytoref.fr), is a new resource in molecular ecology to foster the discovery, assessment and monitoring of the diversity of photosynthetic eukaryotes using high-throughput sequencing.}, keywords = {2015, MACUMBA, rcc, RCC?o?dd, SBR$_\textrmP$hyto$_\textrmD$IPO, SBR$_\textrmP$hyto$_\textrmE$PPO, sbr?hyto$_\textrmd$ipo, sbr?hyto?ppo}, issn = {1755098X}, doi = {10.1111/1755-0998.12401}, url = {http://doi.wiley.com/10.1111/1755-0998.12401}, author = {Decelle, Johan and Romac, Sarah and Stern, Rowena F. and Bendif, El Mahdi and Zingone, Adriana and Audic, St{\'e}phane and Guiry, Michael D. and Guillou, Laure and Tessier, D{\'e}sir{\'e} and Le Gall, Florence and Gourvil, Priscillia and dos Santos, Adriana Lopes and Probert, Ian and Vaulot, Daniel and de Vargas, Colomban and Christen, Richard} } @article {Keeling2014, title = {The Marine Microbial Eukaryote Transcriptome Sequencing Project (MMETSP): illuminating the functional diversity of eukaryotic life in the oceans through transcriptome sequencing}, journal = {PLoS biology}, volume = {12}, number = {6}, year = {2014}, note = {Publisher: Public Library of Science tex.mendeley-tags: 2014,rcc,sbr?hyto$_\textrmd$ipo}, pages = {e1001889}, abstract = {Current sampling of genomic sequence data from eukaryotes is relatively poor, biased, and inadequate to address important questions about their biology, evolution, and ecology; this Community Page describes a resource of 700 transcriptomes from marine microbial eukaryotes to help understand their role in the world{\textquoteright}s oceans}, keywords = {2014, rcc, SBR$_\textrmP$hyto$_\textrmD$PO, sbr?hyto$_\textrmd$ipo}, doi = {10.1371/journal.pbio.1001889}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1371\%252Fjournal.pbio.1001889}, author = {Keeling, Patrick J and Burki, Fabien and Wilcox, Heather M and Allam, Bassem and Allen, Eric E and Amaral-Zettler, Linda A and Armbrust, E Virginia and Archibald, John M and Bharti, Arvind K and Bell, Callum J and Beszteri, Bank and Bidle, Kay D and Cameron, Connor T and Campbell, Lisa and Caron, David A and Cattolico, Rose Ann and Collier, Jackie L and Coyne, Kathryn and Davy, Simon K and Deschamps, Phillipe and Dyhrman, Sonya T and Edvardsen, Bente and Gates, Ruth D and Gobler, Christopher J and Greenwood, Spencer J and Guida, Stephanie M and Jacobi, Jennifer L and Jakobsen, Kjetill S and James, Erick R and Jenkins, Bethany and John, Uwe and Johnson, Matthew D and Juhl, Andrew R and Kamp, Anja and Katz, Laura A and Kiene, Ronald and Kudryavtsev, Alexander and Leander, Brian S and Lin, Senjie and Lovejoy, Connie and Lynn, Denis and Marchetti, Adrian and McManus, George and Nedelcu, Aurora M and Menden-Deuer, Susanne and Miceli, Cristina and Mock, Thomas and Montresor, Marina and Moran, Mary Ann and Murray, Shauna and Nadathur, Govind and Nagai, Satoshi and Ngam, Peter B and Palenik, Brian and Pawlowski, Jan and Petroni, Giulio and Piganeau, Gwenael and Posewitz, Matthew C and Rengefors, Karin and Romano, Giovanna and Rumpho, Mary E and Rynearson, Tatiana and Schilling, Kelly B and Schroeder, Declan C and Simpson, Alastair G B and Slamovits, Claudio H and Smith, David R and Smith, G Jason and Smith, Sarah R and Sosik, Heidi M and Stief, Peter and Theriot, Edward and Twary, Scott N and Umale, Pooja E and Vaulot, Daniel and Wawrik, Boris and Wheeler, Glen L and Wilson, William H and Xu, Yan and Zingone, Adriana and Worden, Alexandra Z} } @article {Medlin2007, title = {A taxonomic review of the genus Phaeocystis}, journal = {Biogeochemistry}, volume = {83}, number = {1-3}, year = {2007}, note = {ISBN: 0085-4417 tex.mendeley-tags: rcc3541}, pages = {3{\textendash}18}, abstract = {Phaeocystis is recognized both as a nuisance and as an ecologicallyphytoplankton species.

The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region showsvariation that some spatial population structure can be, at least in P. antarctica. P. globosa and P. pouchetii havedifferent ITS copies, suggestive of cryptic species that areable to hybridize. A molecular clock has been constructed thatthe divergence of the cold water colonial forms from the-water colonial forms to be about 30 Ma and the divergence of P.and P. pouchetii to be about 15 Ma. A short description ofcolonial stage and the flagellated stage for each formallyspecies is provided. Morphological information is alsoon a number of undescribed species. These include the strain559, consisting of non-colonial cells with peculiar tubular, a second non-colonial species from the north westernSea producing a lot of mucus, and a colonial species with-less flagellates found in Italian waters. In addition, threemorphotypes with scales different from those of P.were reported in the literature from Antarctic waters. Theemerging from both molecular and morphological data is that theof species in the genus is still underestimated and that crypticpseudocryptic diversity requires a sound assessment in futureof this genus.
