Fucoidan From Brown Algae as a Functional Food Ingredient: A Promising Anticancer Agent
Fucoidan, a bioactive polysaccharide from brown algae, inhibits receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activation and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling, suppressing the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) and RAS/RAF/mitogen‐activated protein kinase/extracellular signal‐regulated kinase ...

Cystoseira species are some of the most important marine ecosystem-engineers, forming extended canopies comparable to land forests. Such forests are sensitive to human disturbances, like the decrease in water quality, the coastal development and the ...

Cytochemical localization of acid phosphatase in Stigeoclonium tenue (Chaetophorales, Chlorophyceae) [PDF]
Nonspecific acid phosphatases are a group of enzymes whose activity increases the availability of exogenous and endogenous orthophosphate either through extra- or intracellular hydrolysis of phosphate compounds.

Multigene phylogeny of the southern bull-kelp genus Durvillaea (Phaeophyceae: Fucales)
Durvillaea (southern bull-kelp) is an economically and ecologically important brown algal genus that dominates many exposed, rocky coasts in the cold-temperate Southern Hemisphere. Of its five currently-recognized species, four are non-buoyant and restricted to the south-western Pacific, whereas one is both buoyant and widely distributed.

Marine forests dominated by macroalgae have experienced noticeable regression along some temperate and subpolar rocky shores. Along continuously disturbed shores, where natural recovery is extremely difficult, these forests are often permanently replaced

Analysis of sexual phenotype and prezygotic fertility in natural populations of Fucus spiralis, F. vesiculosus (Fucaceae, Phaeophyceae) and their putative hybrids [PDF]
In the genus Fucus, the character dioecy/hermaphroditism has undergone multiple state changes and hybridization is possible between taxa with contrasting mating systems, e.g. between the dioecious Fucus vesiculosus and the hermaphrodite F. spiralis.

Trace fossils in Upper Carboniferous' rocks of Velebit mountain (Ričice) [PDF]
Fosilni tragovi (ihnofosili) su geološki zapisi biološke aktivnosti. Tragovi kretanja se razlikuju od tjelesnih fosila, koji su fosilizirani ostaci dijelova tijela organizama.

Diversity and phylogeny of Sargassum (Fucales, Phaeophyceae) in Singapore
Sargassum species play key ecological roles on coral reefs, yet their diversity remains poorly known. Precise identification of Sargassum species, however, is improving with molecular genetic tools, though these have yet to be applied rigorously in Singapore.
