Distribution of epiphytic macroalgae on the thalli of their hosts in Cuba
We investigated the distribution of epiphytic macroalgae on the thalli of their hosts at eight localities along the southeastern coast of Cuba between June 2010 and March 2011.

Latitudinal variation in phlorotannin contents from Southwestern Atlantic brown seaweeds [PDF]
Phlorotannins are primary and/or secondary metabolites found exclusively in brown seaweeds, but their geographic distribution and abundance dynamic are not very well understood.

Evolutionary insights into bilin biosynthesis: Functional characterization of pre‐PcyA enzymes
Abstract Biosynthesis of the linear tetrapyrrole phycocyanobilin (PCB) by the ferredoxin‐dependent bilin reductase (FDBR) PcyA is essential for light‐harvesting and regulatory processes in diverse photosynthetic organisms, yet its evolutionary origins are not fully understood. PcyA evolved from pre‐PcyA proteins found in diverse bacteria.

Background: There are few studies about Nemacystus on the Atlantic coast, and N. howei has been reported only once for Mexico; that record, however, did not provide a description of this species.

ABSTRACT There is growing interest in the co‐culture of macroalgae and filter‐feeding bivalves due to anticipated trophic benefits that may enhance the productivity of both organisms. Detritus from cultured macroalgae has the potential to supplement bivalve diets, yet few studies have directly examined this relationship in co‐culture systems.

Two Species of Sargassum (Fucales, Phaeophyceae), Collected from Motupore Island, Papua New Guinea [PDF]
Two species of Sargassum (Fucales, Phaeophyceae), S.peronii (MERTENS) C.AGARDH (subgenus Phyllotrichia) and S.polyporum MONTAGNE (subgenus Sargassum) were collected and described from Motupore Island, Papua New Guinea. The latter species was reported for

Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...
