Chromosome-scale assembly of the streamlined picoeukaryote sp. SENEW3 genome reveals Rabl-like chromatin structure and potential for C photosynthesis.

Genome sequencing and assembly of the photosynthetic picoeukaryotic sp. SENEW3 revealed a compact genome with a reduced gene set, few repetitive sequences, and an organized Rabl-like chromatin structure. Hi-C chromosome conformation capture revealed evidence of possible chromosomal translocations, as well as putative centromere locations.
