Phototaxis of chlamydomonas arises from a tuned adaptive photoresponse shared with multicellular volvocine green algae

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Kyriacos C. Leptos from the DepartmentUniversity of Cambridge , WA, United Kingdom have published the Article: Phototaxis of Chlamydomonas arises from a tuned adaptive photoresponse shared with multicellular Volvocine green algae, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 20/01/2023
• what: Combining high-resolution studies of the flagellar photoresponse of micropipette-held Chlamydomonas with 3D tracking of freely swimming cells the authors show that such tuning also underlies its phototaxis. Exploiting a separation of timescales between the flagellar photoresponse and phototurning the authors develop an equation of motion that accurately describes the observed photoalignment. Exploiting a . . .
