Abstract Streptophyte algae are the closest relatives to land plants; their latest common ancestor performed the most drastic adaptation in plant evolution around 500 million years ago: the conquest of land. Besides other adaptations, this step required changes in cell wall composition.

In the fish farming station, algae specific richness varies according to the water collection point (rearing pond, evacuation canal and decantation pond). Algae contribute differentially to fish diets: biomass is mostly used by Nile Tilapia (herbivorous) than African catfish (omnivorous).

Abstract Local biodiversity patterns are expected to strongly reflect variation in topography, land use, dispersal boundaries, nutrient supplies, contaminant spread, management practices, and other anthropogenic influences. Contrary to this expectation, studies focusing on specific taxa revealed a biodiversity homogenization effect in areas subjected ...

Significance Statement Transglycanase enzymes remodel land‐plant cell walls, enabling wall restructuring. Unfortunately, comparable enzymes in charophytes (the land plants’ closest algal relatives) are little known, limiting our understanding of the ‘alga to land plant’ transition.

Calcium and pH interaction limits bloom formation and expansion of a nuisance microalga
Abstract Microalgal range expansions are increasing in frequency and magnitude but generally remain unnoticed until mass development occurs. Gonyostomum semen is a freshwater raphidophyte that causes nuisance blooms in lakes and has recently expanded its distribution across Europe. G.
