The contribution of each is detailed below. At first, the project has involved the effort of all the members of the Morphogenesis of MacroAlgae research team. Dr Bénédicte Charrier, researcher in plant biology, performed a substantial part of the cytology experiments and data analysis. Dr Bernard Billoud, lecturer in bioinformatics, contributed to the analysis of some quantitative data and carried out all the computational work related to the mechanical modelling of Ectocarpus tip-growth. Élodie Rolland, research technician in tissue culture, performed most of the algae cultivation tasks, especially the preparation of the parthenosporophytes of Ectocarpus grown on glass coverslips, which were essential for most of the experiments. The staining of the actin cytoskeleton using the phalloidin-based probe has been performed in collaboration with Pr. Christos Katsaros and his PhD student Maria Koutalianou, both from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Greece). Actin and tubulin immunolocalisation experiments have been carried out with Dr. Adeel Nasir (Friedrich Alexander Universität, Erlangen-Nurnberg, Germany), who supplied us with an alternative protocol for cytoskeleton staining during a short visit. All the observations of cell ultrastructure by Transmission Electronic Microscopy (TEM) have been conducted by Dr. Sophie Le Panse, from the “MerImage” microscopy plateform at the Roscoff Marine Biology Station. The AFM data that are briefly presented and discussed in this report have been acquired by Benoit Tesson (Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego, USA). The identification of the causal mutation in the mutant étoile (etl) and the bioinformatic analysis (with the help of B. Billoud) of the candidate ETOILE gene which is briefly discussed in this report, is mostly the work of Zofia Nehr (former PhD student in the team). I performed the final completion of her substantial work with the help of the L2 student Quentin Rochas, whom I supervised. Finally, the results presented on the effect of drugs depolymerizing the cytoskeleton on the growth and morphogenesis of the apical cell were from time-lapse pictures of Ectocarpus filaments grown by Carole Duchêne, a former L3 internship in our team. Articles The Part 1 (Introduction section) of the report contains a large chapter reviewing the biomechanical models of tip-growth across the tree of life. It will be submitted as a review for an annual series or a book (Rabillé & Charrier, in preparation). The Part 1 also comprises an Opinion paper discussing the extent to which the cell wall composition and its intrinsic mechanics impact growth (Charrier, Rabillé & Billoud, in press in Trends in Plant Science). The Part 2 deals with the biomechanics of tip-growth and of the cell wall. It contains two Original Research papers. The first article (Part 2.1) presents a visco-elastic model accounting for the tip growth in Ectocarpus, highlighting the role of the cell wall thickness 3 Biophysical and cellular mechanisms of tip-growth in Ectocarpus (Rabillé et al., in revision in PLoS Biology). The second one (Part 2.2) reports the role of alginates in the mechanics of the cell wall along the filament of Ectocarpus (Rabillé et al., in preparation). 4 Biophysical and cellular mechanisms of tip-growth in Ectocarpus Acknowledgements First I must thank the two organisms that have funded my PhD: The Presidency of the former Université Pierre and Marie Curie (now fused with Sorbonne Université) and the Brittany Region. I am also indebted to the Phycomorph Network (EC funded COST Action FA1406) for having funding my Short-Term Scientific Mission from the 12th to the 29th of October, 2016, in the laboratory of Pr. Christos Katsaros (see below). I thank warmly Dr Bénédicte Charrier, head of the Morphogenesis of MacroAlgae (MMA) team and my PhD supervisor, for having given me the opportunity to do work on such an exciting research project, at the very forefront of the current knowledge in cellular and developmental biology. Thank also you a lot for all the time you have dedicated to supervising my thesis, for all the (often very long) theoretical discussions about the mechanisms of cell growth, and especially on wall expansion mechanisms, the very hot topic that repeatedly came at the center of our thoughts in the course of these three years. Also, thank you for founding the very last weeks of this thesis project. In the same vein, I have to thank you a lot, Dr Bernard Billoud, for your dedication into the project, and for the HUGE work for the numerical modelling of Ectocarpus tip-growth. Thank you also for, again, all the theoretical discussions mentioned above, and for you many informed, enlightened, and often stated loud and clear, points of view on the numerous hot technical and theoretical issues this research project has given rise to. More generally, I would like to tell all my gratitude to both B. Charrier and B. Billoud, for the overwhelming work that was the redaction and formatting of the two original papers which drafts are included in this report, in which I have only played a small part. I also would like to thank Dr Catherine Boyen for having funded one extra month and a half of my thesis, that have allowed me to have time to write my report (extra time that I have largely abused). I would also like to thanks all the member of my thesis committee, for their GREAT patience and indulgence (my apologies, again, for the almost 2 hours’ lateness at the second meeting, and my complete lack of professionalism), for their interest in the project and their kind pieces of advice. So thanks to Pr Bruno De Reviers, Dr Hayat Bouteau, Dr Thierry Comtet. Thank also to Dr Arezki Boudaoud and Dr. B. Billoud for attending the first meeting in February 2017. I thank also all the members of my thesis comitee, that have kindly accepted to attend and evaluate my future thesis defence, that is to take place on the 3rd of December 2018. So thank you Dr Siobhan Braybrook, Dr Arezki Boudaoud, Dr Bernard Kloareg and Dr Benedikt Kost. Many thanks especially for two former for tackling the task of evaluating this huge report. Here and now, I would like to thanks all the other people that have got involved in the thesis project, and without whom nothing, or so few, would have been possible. First I would like to thanks Élodie Rolland, research technician in the team, for preparing loads of Ectocarpus cultures necessary

In the continuation of our investigations on Irish brown algae, we undertook an in-depth chemical study on the n-hexanes and chloroform subextracts of B. bifurcata that led to isolation of six new (1–6) and two known (7–8) acyclic diterpenes. Chemical structures of the compounds were elucidated by a combination of 1D and 2D NMR, HRMS, FT-IR, [α]D and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy. Compounds 1–8, as well as three additional linear diterpenes (9–11), which we isolated from the same seaweed before, were tested against the human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231).

Peters2, Dieter Müller3 and J. Mark Cock1 Abstract Ectocarpus is a genus of flamentous, marine brown algae. Brown algae belong to the stramenopiles, a large super- group of organisms that are only distantly related to animals, land plants and fungi. Brown algae are also one of only a small number of eukaryotic lineages that have evolved complex multicellularity. For many years, little information was available concerning the molecular mechanisms underlying multicellular development in the brown algae, but this situation has changed with the emergence of Ectocarpus as a model brown alga. Here we summarise some of the main questions that are being addressed and areas of study using Ectocarpus as a model organism and discuss how the genomic information, genetic tools and molecular approaches available for this organism are being employed to explore developmental questions in an evolutionary context.

They are the domi- nant organisms in many coastal ecosystems, where they often form large, underwater forests. They also have an unusual evolutionary history, being members of the stramenopiles, which are very distantly related to well-studied animal and green plant models. As a consequence of this history, brown algae have evolved many novel features, for example in terms of their cell biology and metabolic path- ways. They are also one of only a small number of eukaryotic groups to have independently evolved complex multicellularity. Despite these interesting features, the brown algae have remained a relatively poorly studied group. This situation has started to change over the last few years, however, with the emergence of the filamentous brown alga Ectocarpus as a model system that is amenable to the genomic and genetic approaches that have proved to be so powerful in more classical model organisms such as Drosophila and Arabidopsis.

Compounds 1–8, as well as three additional linear diterpenes (9–11), which we isolated from the same seaweed before, were tested against the human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231).
