Many dinoflagellates are known to be bioluminescent. Laboratory experiments have provided insight into the role that dinoflagellate bioluminescence plays in marine ecology. Dinoflagellate flashes ...

They utilized a dinoflagellate mRNA-specific spliced leader as a "hook," along with single-molecule real-time sequencing and other physiological measurements. This study was published in Science ...
