Regulation of sedimentation rate shapes the evolution of multicellularity in a close unicellular relative of animals

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Omaya Dudin and colleagues from the Barcelona, Spain have published the research: Regulation of sedimentation rate shapes the evolution of multicellularity in a close unicellular relative of animals, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of November/15,/2021
  • what: Using isolates of the ichthyosporean genus Sphaeroforma-close unicellular relatives of animals with brief transient multicellular life stages- the authors demonstrate that sedimentation rate is a highly variable and evolvable trait affected by at least 2 distinct physical mechanisms. Using EE, the authors characterize how regulation of sedimentation rate can influence the emergence of stable multicellular life . . .
