Prospects for Bioethanol Production from Macroalgae

, 2015
Macroalgae (mainly marine macroalgae, i.e. seaweeds) are considered as a very promising source for bioethanol production, because they have high carbohydrate contents, superior productivity, and wide adaptability.

Morpho‐anatomical and genetic variation of Lithophyllum neo‐okamurae and L. okamurae (Corallinales, Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta) from Jeju Island, Korea

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Lithophyllum Philippi (Corallinales, Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta) is a diverse genus of non‐geniculate coralline algae. Lithophyllum neo‐okamurae and L. okamurae are commonly found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of Jeju Island, Korea, where they contribute to local benthic communities.

Evaluation of the Inclusion of the Seaweed Ulva lactuca Produced in an Integrated System with Biofloc in the Diet of Juvenile Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus

Applied Sciences
Macroalgae biomass produced in integrated biofloc systems can become a high-quality nutritional product to replace ingredients in the diet of tilapia. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different concentrations of Ulva lactuca on the performance

Seasonal growth and reproductive dynamics of Chondrus ocellatus in relation to shore height in the Korean intertidal zone

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY We examined the seasonal growth and reproduction of the carrageenophyte Chondrus ocellatus in Hakampo, Korea (July 2014–April 2015), to understand its adaptation to environmental variability across the intertidal zone. Three hypotheses were tested: (1) growth is greater at the lower shore with reduced stress; (2) gametophytes dominate at the ...

Propagation method and species drive survival patterns across reef zones in coral seeding on the Great Barrier Reef

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reef restoration increasingly relies on scalable methods, yet outcomes vary across species, propagation techniques, and habitats. Coral seeding, where coral propagules are settled on deployment units before outplanting, provides a flexible approach that accommodates both asexual (e.g. microfragments) and sexual (e.g.

MACROALGAE DIVERSITY AND LIFE FORMS OF INTER-TIDAL ROCKY SHORES

, 2007
A study on macroalgae diversity and life form was carried out at inter-tidal rocky shores of Similajau National Park, Bintulu, Sarawak. Thirty five species were identified in this study, of which 15 belong to the division Rhodophyta, 12 to the ...

Ecosystem recovery in restored saltmarshes detected through invertebrate communities

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Saltmarsh ecosystems support rich biodiversity and provide key ecosystem services. Invertebrate communities underpin essential processes such as nutrient cycling and decomposition. However, saltmarshes have been widely degraded by land use change.

Macroalgae Blooms and their Effects on Seagrass Ecosystems

, 2014
Seagrass decline caused by the macroalgae blooms is becoming a common phenomenon throughout temperate and tropical regions. We summarized the incidence of macroalgae blooms throughout the world and their impact on seagrass beds by direct and indirect ...

Conditioning cultured Diadema antillarum through uncaged mid‐water grow‐out shifts behavior and morphology

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The long‐spined black sea urchin Diadema antillarum is a keystone herbivore on Caribbean reefs, yet population recovery following mass mortality events has been slow and spatially variable. Restocking programs increasingly rely on aquaculture, but rearing conditions may generate behavioral and morphological shifts that affect post‐
