Importance of organism and transcriptomesPrevious transcriptome work with T. pseudonana has shown that the expression of different suites of genes varies in response to fluctuations in nutrient regimes (Mock et al. 2008; Dhyrman, Jenkins, Ryearson, Saito, unpublished data). We feel that the suite of variables we are proposing will give the most complete transcriptome display from this organism by covering not only a response to limitations of major nutrients (nitrogen and silica) but also an important micronutrient (iron). There is already a fully sequenced genome with a significant amount of transcriptome data from similar physiological conditions of a species that is a coastal isolate within the same genus (Mock et al. 2008; Dhyrman, Jenkins, Ryearson, Saito, unpublished data), T. pseudonana 1335, that will be very useful for comparison with this oceanic isolate.
