The establishment of algal spores plays an essential role in adult kelp distribution and abundance patterns. Sedimentation is a key variable regulating algal spore settlement and success, possibly controlling species-specific dominance in situ. Laboratory experiments were used to determine spore attachment and survival rates of two Alaskan canopy ...

Chromosomal alternation of generations in Nereocystis luetkeana (mertens) Postels and Ruprecht
A cytological examination of the life-history of Nereocystis luetkeana has shown that an alternating chromosome number corresponds to the morphological alternation of generations.

Identification of bacterial species growing on aged Nereocystis luetkeana and Agarum fimbriatum. in the San Juan Channel [PDF]
Do bacterial communities change as algae decays? If so, how does it change? Bacteria form many different types of relationships with algae and this study observed the effects of algal decay on bacterial abundance and composition on Nereocystis luetkeana

Monitoring Salish Sea bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) via kayak surveys [PDF]
Conspicuous declines in the abundance of bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana), the most common canopy-forming species in Puget Sound, have been observed in many areas.

Nereocystis and diatoms, going with the flow
The purpose of this experiment was to observe the effect of water flow on fertilization success of Nereocystis gametophytes and growth rates of young sporophytes. My null hypothesis was that there would be no differences between the flows.

Canopy-forming kelps create underwater forests that are among the most productive marine ecosystems. On the Pacific coast of North America, two canopy-forming kelps with contrasting life histories co-occur; Macrocystis pyrifera, a perennial species, and ...

The Effects of Hydrogen Sulfide on Kelp Growth using Nereocystis leutkeana [PDF]
Nereocystis leutkeana, or Bull kelp is a fundamental part of near shore marine ecosystems and as carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere increase, due to climate change, algae blooms grow larger resulting in higher concentrations of hydrogen sulfide ...
