Replication of bacterial plasmids in the nucleus of the red alga Porphyridium purpureum
Genetic tools for research on red algae (rhodophytes) are lacking. Here, Li and Bock present an efficient genetic transformation system for a model rhodophyte, and show that the transgenic DNA can be maintained as an extrachromosomal multi-copy plasmid in the algal nucleus.
