CLADISTICS OF THE BRYOPSIDALES: A PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS
Journal of Phycology, 1998The Bryopsidales contains some of the most species rich and ecologically dominant algae in tropical ecosystems. However, the evolutionary relationships among the 29 genera and several hundred species of this order remain poorly resolved. Because of a lack of known reproductive characters for many taxa, evolutionary hypotheses grouped genera by ...

Molecular systematics, historical ecology, and phylogeography of Halimeda (Bryopsidales) [PDF]
Halimeda (Bryopsidales), a genus of calcified, segmented green seaweeds, abounds in reefs and lagoons throughout the tropics. To investigate phylogenetic, phylogeographic, and historic ecological relationships of the genus, the nuclear rDNA including the SSU and both ITS regions were sequenced.

Evolution and phylogeography of Halimeda section Halimeda (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta)
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2005Nuclear ribosomal and plastid DNA sequences of specimens belonging to section Halimeda of the pantropical green seaweed genus Halimeda show that the group under scrutiny contains many more genetically delineable species than those recognized by classical taxonomy.

Reassessment of the classification of Bryopsidales (Chlorophyta) based on chloroplast phylogenomic analyses [PDF]
The Bryopsidales is a morphologically diverse group of mainly marine green macroalgae characterized by a siphonous structure. The order is composed of three suborders - Ostreobineae, Bryopsidineae, and Halimedineae. While previous studies improved the higher-level classification of the order, the taxonomic placement of some genera in Bryopsidineae ...

Behavior of nuclei during zoosporogenesis in Bryopsis plumosa (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta)
Journal of Plant Research, 2005The behavior of nuclei during zoosporogenesis in Bryopsis plumosa (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) was examined by fluorescence and electron microscopy. Each mature filamentous sporophyte had a single lenticular nucleus, which was about 25 microm in diameter and embedded in a thick cytoplasmic layer. At the commencement of multinucleation, giant nuclei with

The Forgotten genusPseudoderbesia(Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta)
Cryptogamie, Algologie, 2014The poorly known siphonous green algal genus Pseudoderbesia was originally described from the Caribbean coast of Colombia, and the Canary Islands. Here we describe a collection of Pseudoderbesia from Rhodes, Greece, representing the first report of the genus since its original description in 1991. Cultured plants of Pseudoderbesia were characterized by

The green macroalga Caulerpa macrodisca Decaisne was recently reported in East Malaysia with limited information recorded on the nutritional properties of this particular species. Hence, the present study was conducted to determine the biochemical composition of C. macrodisca collected from Sabah waters, Malaysia.

Taxonomic revision of Halimeda (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) in south-western Australia
Australian Systematic Botany, 2016Halimeda J.V.Lamour. is a green algal genus that is an important component of tropical reefs and lagoons. Although it does not generally occur outside the tropics, the range of one putatively widespread species, Halimeda cuneata Hering, in Western Australia extends southward past Cape Leeuwin to its southern extreme at Cape Howe and around to its most ...

Cosmid library of the marine macroalga Bryopsis maxima (Bryopsidales, Ulvophyceae)
Phycological Research, 2002SUMMARY The purpose of this study was to construct a cosmid library from chromosomal DNA of a marine macroalga, Bryopsis maxima Okamura ex Segawa (Bryopsidales, Ulvophyceae), in a rapid, simple and inexpensive manner. In the DNA purification, polysaccharides were removed by covalently binding them to resin particles containing free boric acid groups.
