The genome of ecocarpus, a model organism of brown algae, has been sequenced Brown algae are complex photosynthetic organisms, they have adapted to living in the coastal stone environment Genomic analysis provides clues for understanding this adaptability, and also shows a large class of light and pigment biosynthesis genes and novel metabolic processes (such as halide metabolism) Comparative genomic analysis highlights the possible importance of a set of receptor kinases and related molecules in the evolution of multicellularity in plants, animals and brown algae.
