Serial Gene Losses and Foreign DNA Underlie Size and Sequence Variation in the Plastid Genomes of Diatoms

Photosynthesis by diatoms accounts for roughly one-fifth of global primary production, but despite this, relatively little is known about their plastid genomes. We report the completely sequenced plastid genomes for eight phylogenetically diverse diatoms and show them to be variable in size, gene an...
