Current Biology, 2014 Algae frequently get a bad press. Pond slime is a problem in garden pools, algal blooms can produce toxins that incapacitate or kill animals and humans and even the term seaweed is pejorative - a weed being a plant growing in what humans consider to be the wrong place.

, 2020 Cryopreservation has been successfully used in the banking and maintenance of cultures of microorganisms, from bacteria to yeasts, since the onset of cryobiology. Biobanking of marine biological resources is crucial for development of scientific knowledge as researchers rely on guaranteed access to reliable, stable resources. Culture collections play a

Arsoniumphospholipid in algae [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1978 A novel phospholipid containing arsenic was formed by all marine algae cultured in [ 74 As]arsenate. Components of the labeled algal extracts readily separated by two-dimensional paper radiochromatography. Base-catalyzed deacylation of the major lipid yielded a phosphodiester identical to one

Scientific ReportsAlgae are versatile photosynthetic organisms, with remarkable adaptability and metabolic properties that allow them to live in diverse and extreme habitats, as well as holding great potential for biotechnology. They play fundamental roles in their environments, including primary production, carbon fixation, and engineering their ecosystems. Advances in

HEALTH SCIENCES QUARTERLY, 2018 Algae involve several species of multicellular and macroscopic marine algae found in the coastal region between high to low tide in the sub-tidal region up to a depth where 0.01 % photosynthetic light is available. Based on their pigmentation, seaweeds were classified in to Chlorophyta (green algae), Phaeophyta (Brown algae) and Rhodophyta (Red algae).

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2007 Although most algae are nutritious food for mosquito larvae, some species kill the larvae when ingested in large quantities. Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) that kill larvae do so by virtue of toxicity. While blue-green algae toxins may offer possibilities for delivery as larvicides, the toxicity of live blue-green algae does not seem consistent ...

THE PERIODICITY OF FRESHWATER ALGAE
American Journal of Botany, 1916 The normal life of a freshwater alga such as a Spirogyra consists of a period of germination of spores, a period of growth and development, and a period of sexual or asexual reproduction, commonly followed by a period of dormancy. An Oedogonium has in addition to these periods one or more phases during the vegetative period when zoospores are produced.
