1. Chlamydomonas

   Chlamydomonas is a genus of green algae consisting of about 150 species of unicellular flagellates, found in stagnant water and on damp soil, in freshwater, seawater, and even in snow as "snow algae". Chlamydomonas is used as a model organism for molecular biology, especially studies of flagellar motility and chloroplast dynamics, biogenesis, and genetics. One of the many striking features of Chlamydomonas is that it contains ion channels (channelrhodopsins) that are directly activated by light. Some regulatory systems of Chlamydomonas are more complex than their homologs in Gymnosperms, with evolutionarily related regulatory proteins being larger and containing additional domains.Molecular phylogeny studies indicated that the traditional genus Chlamydomonas as defined using morphological data was polyphyletic within Volvocales. Many species were subsequently reclassified (e.g., in Oogamochlamys, Lobochlamys), and many other "Chlamydomonas" s.l. lineages are still to be reclassified.

1. chlamydomonas

   Chlamydomonas is a genus of green algae consisting of unicellular flagellates, found in stagnant water and on damp soil, in freshwater, seawater and even in snow as a component of cryoplankton. Some species are known for their fast movement and agility. It is used as a model organism for molecular biology, particularly studies of flagellar movement and chloroplast dynamics, biogenesis and genetics.
