Three genomes in the algal genus Volvox reveal the fate of a haploid sex-determining region after a transition to homothallism

Kayoko Yamamoto et al.

Summary: Transitions between separate sexes and other mating systems are common in eukaryotes, with the research on a haploid dioecious green algal species showing a breakdown of dioecy. The investigation into the sex-determining gene regions in different species revealed variations in the SDR and the involvement of homothallism in the breakdown of dioecy.

Phylotranscriptomics points to multiple independent origins of multicellularity and cellular differentiation in the volvocine algae

Charles Ross Lindsey et al.

Summary: The volvocine algae, including Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Volvox carteri, are important models for studying evolution of multicellularity and cellular differentiation. Research shows that multicellularity evolved independently at least twice in this group, and cellular differentiation arose independently at least four times, affirming their significance as a model system.

Digest: Three sexes from two loci in one genome: A haploid alga expands the diversity of trioecious species

Scott William Roy

Summary: This study presents the first known instance of trioecy in a haploid organism, with genetic control of all three sexes by two loci. These results complicate models for sexual system turnover and expand the known diversity of trioecy species in several ways.

Three sex phenotypes in a haploid algal species give insights into the evolutionary transition to a self-compatible mating system

Kohei Takahashi et al.

Summary: The study revealed a new haploid mating system in Pleodorina starrii with three sex phenotypes: male, female, and bisexual. Genetic analyses suggested the presence of a autosomal bisexual factor locus independent of volvocine male and female determining regions, providing insight into the initial evolutionary step from heterothallism to homothallism. The findings indicated that the strains belong to the same biological species, with intercrossings demonstrating normal zygote formation and high survivability of F1 strains.
