Taxonomic revision of Sargassum sect. Acanthocarpicae (Fucales, Phaeophyceae)

open access: yesTAXON, 2010
AbstractSargassum is one of the morphologically most complex phaeophyceaen genera, and is divided into subgenera, sections, subsections, series and species groups based on highly polymorphic characters. Recent DNA analyses have highlighted incongruities in the traditional classification of the genus and especially within Sargassum subg. Sargassum sect.

SEASONALITY AND SPECIES COMPOSITION IN THE BENTHIC ALGAE OF CACIQUE REEF FLAT, CARIBBEAN COAST OF PANAMA

open access: yesTecnociencia, 2006
    A one year study (April 1998 to May 1999) was conducted on the Cacique reef flat in the Caribbean coast of Panama. Of 49 species of benthic macroalgae encountered, 17 (35%) were Chlorophyceae, 13 (26%) Phaeophyceae and 21 (43%) Rhodophyceae.

Conservation and restoration of marine forests in the Mediterranean Sea and the potential role of Marine Protected Areas

open access: yesAdvances in Oceanography and Limnology, 2013
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 ...

Multigene phylogeny of the southern bull-kelp genus Durvillaea (Phaeophyceae: Fucales)

open access: yesMolecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2010
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.

Restoration of a Canopy-Forming Alga Based on Recruitment Enhancement: Methods and Long-Term Success Assessment

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
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

Diversity and phylogeny of Sargassum (Fucales, Phaeophyceae) in Singapore

open access: yesPhytotaxa, 2018
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.
