Last year, our collaboration effort with @sodail.bsky.social and Susana Coelho highlighted that Brown Algae are a promising model system to study the evolution of multicellularity and emergence of embryogenesis as a constrained developmental process shaping body plans.

The entire "canvas" for the regulatory genome is surprisingly distinct in brown algae and the evolution of this chromatin landscape *happens* 🤔👽👾 to coincide with the independent origin of complex multicellularity. A lot of food for thoughts!!

And of course, kudos to the authors for generating improved chromosome-level genome assemblies/scaffolding for brown algae that will be an important resource of the brown algal field!

Wondering how general the genomic patterns observed in animals are for multicellular organisms across the eukaryotic tree of life! 🧬🤔

The diversity of brown algae (tissue types, sexual systems, morphological "complexity", life cycle types) given the conserved macro-synteny reminds me of two interesting articles I recently read: link.springer.com/article/10.1... and link.springer.com/article/10.1...
The application of irreversible genomic states to define and trace ancient cell type homologies - EvoDevo
Homology, or relationship among characters by common descent, has been notoriously difficult to assess for many morphological features, and cell types in particular. The ontogenetic origin of morpholo...
