Characterization of the whole chloroplast genome Caulerpa lentillifera J. Agardh (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) [PDF]
The whole chloroplast genome (cp DNA) sequence of Caulerpa lentillifera J. Agardh has been characterized from Illumina pair-end sequencing. The circular cpDNA was 119,402 bp in length, containing 122 genes, which included 91 protein-coding genes, 28 tRNA

Clonality contributes to the spread of Avrainvillea lacerata (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) in Hawai'i. [PDF]
Abstract The relative rates of sexual versus asexual reproduction influence the partitioning of genetic diversity within and among populations. During range expansions, asexual reproduction often facilitates colonization and establishment. The arrival of the green alga Avrainvillea lacerata has caused shifts in habitat structure and community ...

Who is in there? Exploration of endophytic bacteria within the siphonous green seaweed Bryopsis (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta). [PDF]
Associations between marine seaweeds and bacteria are widespread, with endobiotic bacterial-algal interactions being described for over 40 years. Also within the siphonous marine green alga Bryopsis, intracellular bacteria have been visualized by ...

A survey of fishes associated with Hawaiian deep-water Halimeda kanaloana (Bryopsidales: Halimedaceae) and Avrainvillea sp. (Bryopsidales: Udoteaceae) meadows [PDF]
The invasive macroalgal species Avrainvillea sp. and native species Halimeda kanaloana form expansive meadows that extend to depths of 80 m or more in the waters off of O‘ahu and Maui, respectively.

Light Induced Changes in Pigment and Lipid Profiles of Bryopsidales Algae [PDF]
Bryopsidales (Chlorophyta) are cultured and consumed in several regions of the planet and are known for their high nutritional value and bioprospection potential, due to a high content of relevant polar lipids and polysaccharides.

Identification of polycistronic transcriptional units and non-canonical introns in green algal chloroplasts based on long-read RNA sequencing data [PDF]
Background Chloroplasts are important semi-autonomous organelles in plants and algae. Unlike higher plants, the chloroplast genomes of green algal linage have distinct features both in organization and expression.

Photosynthetic responses of Halimeda scabra (Chlorophyta, Bryopsidales) to interactive effects of temperature, pH, and nutrients and its carbon pathways [PDF]
In this study, we evaluated the interactive effects of temperature, pH, and nutrients on photosynthetic performance in the calcareous tropical macroalga Halimeda scabra.

RNAi reveals a unique set of kinesins mediating chloroplast motility in the giant cytoplasm of Bryopsis (Ulvophyceae), a coenocytic green alga. [PDF]
Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool for protein knockdown and is widely used in model animals and plants. Here, we implemented RNAi in Bryopsis, a green feather alga that develops a coenocytic thallus >10 cm in length without cytokinesis.

Enhancing species discovery and description in algal turfs: A case study in the green alga Pseudoderbesia (Bryopsidales). [PDF]
Abstract Algal turfs are assemblages consisting of small marine green, brown, and red algae on the scale of millimeters to a few centimeters. Due to their small size, they have been less intensively studied by macroalgal taxonomists, and they also fall outside the scope of microalgal taxonomists, who tend to focus on smaller, often unicellular, taxa ...
