Sexual dimorphism in the brown algae

Perspectives in Phycology, 2014
Sexual dimorphisms have been described in several groups of organisms, but while an important number of investigations have focused on animal and plant systems, much less is known about this phenomena in other eukaryotes. We review here the current know­ ledge on sexual dimorphisms in the brown algae, a group of multicellular eukaryotes that have been ...

Sterol compositions in some green algae and brown algae

Steroids, 1968
Abstract Compositions of the sterol in Chlorophyta and Phaeophyta were established quantitatively. Sterol content in Chlorophyta is more similar to higher plant, and it contains large amount of cholesterol. In Phaeophyta, fucosterol is the main sterol and small amounts of cholesterol, 24-methylene-cholesterol and saringosterol were identified.

The chemistry of brown algae

Economic Botany, 1954
The enormous and self-replenishing supplies—perhaps 200 or 300 million tons—of these seaweeds in the oceans of the world have been commercially exploited so far primarily in the production of alginic acid, but the other carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, enzymes and antibacterial substances in them and discussed here may hold even greater ...

Cytoplasmic inheritance of organelles in brown algae

Journal of Plant Research, 2010
Brown algae, together with diatoms and chrysophytes, are a member of the heterokonts. They have either a characteristic life cycle of diplohaplontic alternation of gametophytic and sporophytic generations that are isomorphic or heteromorphic, or a diplontic life cycle.

Viruses in Marine Brown Algae

1998
Publisher Summary Virus-like particles have been repeatedly reported from multicellular marine red and brown algae, and the release of viruses from infected algal hosts into the surrounding sea water also contributes to the number of virus-like particles in coastal waters. It has become apparent that they are intimately and unseparably connected with

Strontium, Calcium and Magnesium in Brown Algae

Nature, 1967
THE ion exchange properties of alginates have received some attention lately, particularly because of their potential value in connexion with therapy after strontium-90 overdoses1–3. It has been shown that alginates rich in guluronic acid residues have a greater affinity for calcium in the ion exchange reaction calcium–magnesium4 and for strontium in ...

Balearone, a metabolite of the brown alga

Tetrahedron, 1984
Abstract The isolation of a new metabolite of mixed biogenesis, balearone 1 from the brown alga Cystoscira balearica is described. The structure was determined by an X-ray diffraction analysis.

Brown Algae

2003
The brown algae comprise the class Phaeophyceae, golden-brown algae that range from small filamentous forms to large, complex seaweeds. Of the estimated 1,836 species in approximately 285 genera, fewer than 1% are found in freshwater habitats. Because so few freshwater brown algae exist worldwide and new discoveries are continuing, this chapter ...

Chromosomes of the brown algae

Phycologia, 1996
Abstract Investigations concerning brown algal chromosomes have contributed to our understanding of the reproductive biology of brown algae. Techniques used in observing chromosomes in the light microscope are briefly summarized. Mitosis and meiosis are discussed, with an emphasis on aspects that are distinctive in the brown algae.

Brown Algae as a Model for Plant Organogenesis

2012
Brown algae are an extremely interesting, but surprisingly poorly explored, group of organisms. They are one of only five eukaryotic lineages to have independently evolved complex multicellularity, which they express through a wide variety of morphologies ranging from uniseriate branched filaments to complex parenchymatous thalli with multiple cell ...
