“…Recently, C. tuberculosum genome and transcriptome study, for the evolution of partial lignin biosynthetic pathway generating a highly fragmented genome 41 , was the highest level in the genomic research till date from closely related non-encrusting coralline algae. In addition, very few transcriptomic studies have been carried out on coralline algae 39,41,42,43 . Additionally, for some species, mitochondrial 44,45,46,47,48 and plastidial genomes 47,48 have been sequenced.…”
