Thalassiosira oceanica CCMP1005 Whole Genome Shotgun Assembly
The diatom Thalassiosira oceanica is an important oceanic primary producer that is adapted to chronic limitation of the essential nutrient iron. Its genome of approx. 80 Mb haploid size was sequenced to 8.7x coverage in a Whole Genome Shotgun approach using Roche 454 pyrosequencing technology. Sequenced strain is Thalassiosira oceanica CCMP1005.
