Phaeodactylum tricornutum

Q+A:

Q: The genome sequence is very important for us, which is the strain used in the published article “The Phaeodactylum genome reveals the evolutionary history of diatom genomes”. Would you mind telling me the difference between them.

A: CCMP632 was deposited in 1986 by Lewin, J.
