Seaweed dispersal is discussed in relation to the properties of the propagules, the parent plant and the water motion. The magnitude of water flow velocities is overwhelmingly important. Even motile propagules have little control over their destiny. The fate of both liberated propagules and drifting plants is discussed in relation to dispersal distance

Introduced macroalgae — A growing concern [PDF]
Introductions of non-indigenous species to new ecosystems are one of the major threats to biodiversity, ecosystem functions and services. Globally, species introductions may lead to biotic homogenisation, in synergy with other anthropogenic disturbances such as climate change and coastal pollution. Successful marine introductions depend on (1) presence

Red macroalgae in the genomic era
SummaryRhodophyta (or red algae) are a diverse and species‐rich group that forms one of three major lineages in the Archaeplastida, a eukaryotic supergroup whose plastids arose from a single primary endosymbiosis. Red algae are united by several features, such as relatively small intron‐poor genomes and a lack of cytoskeletal structures associated with
