==Genome Structure==
The complete genome of Alexandrium fundyense has been sequenced (boldsystems.org) and it has been found that A. fundyense has highly redundant nuclear genes (Erdner and Anderson 2006). DNA sequencing is the most frequently used and most reliable method for distinguishing different species of the Alexandrium genus. There is evidence of very little transcriptional regulation (Erdner and Anderson 2006) and the mitochondrial mRNA is subject to editing (Zhang and Lin 2005).

The complete genome of Alexandrium fundyense has been sequenced (boldsystems.org) and it has been found that A. fundyense has highly redundant nuclear genes (Erdner and Anderson 2006). DNA sequencing is the most frequently used and most reliable method for distinguishing different species of the Alexandrium genus. There is evidence of very little transcriptional regulation (Erdner and Anderson 2006) and the mitochondrial mRNA is subject to editing (Zhang and Lin 2005).
