Life history, morphological variability and growth rates of the life phases of Gracilaria tenuistipitata (Rhodophyta: Gracilariales) in vitro

Scientia Marina, 2010
Gracilaria tenuistipitata, a species of commercial interest, is becoming a model organism for studies on red algal physiology and molecular biology as it can be grown easily in vitro under a broad range of conditions.

Unveiling coralline diversity of mesophotic rhodoliths in subtropical Japan, including new species of Sporolithon, emended genera Orientalilithon and Roseolithon (Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta)

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 1044-1070, June 2026.
Abstract The mesophotic zone off Tanegashima Island (approximately 30–40 m deep) is a marine macroalgal hotspot in subtropical Japan; however, the taxonomic diversity of calcifying red algal community remains poorly understood. Our phylogenetic analyses based on psbA, rbcL, and COI‐5P gene markers disclosed the presence of at least 12 rhodolith‐forming

Nucleomorph phylogenomics suggests a deep and ancient origin of cryptophyte plastids within Rhodophyta

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3103-3113, June 2026.
Summary The evolutionary origin of red algae‐derived complex plastids remains obscure. Cryptophyta, one of four eukaryotic lineages harboring these plastids, still contains nucleomorphs, which are highly reduced remnants of red algal nuclei. The genes present on nucleomorph genomes can be used for phylogenomic reconstruction in order to unravel the ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 10, Page 1491-1518, May 2026.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Palisada yatsenii sp. nov. (Ceramiales, Rhodophyta), a New Prostrate Red Alga From Mangroves of Guangxi, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A new red algal species, Palisada yatsenii sp. nov., is described from the high intertidal mangrove habitat in Qinzhou, Guangxi, China, representing the first record of Palisada in this unique niche. Second, integrative taxonomic analyses (morphology + rbcL/cox1 phylogenetics) confirm its independence, with distinct diagnostic traits (pale yellow ...

From kelp forests to turf reefs: Patterns, drivers, and impacts to functional diversity

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Kelp forests are declining in many regions due to ocean warming, predator loss, and other anthropogenic stressors. In areas of rapid ocean warming, including the southern Gulf of Maine, these ecosystems have transitioned to a novel state dominated by low‐lying mats of turf algae.

Environmental and Spatial Processes Drive the Phylogenetic Diversity and Structure of Planktonic Microeukaryotes Revealed by 18S rDNA Metabarcoding in a Tropical Floodplain

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
The community structure of photosynthetic planktonic microeukaryotes in the floodplain lakes of the Tocantins‐Araguaia River basin is influenced by a combination of environmental filters and spatial processes. Phylogenetic information from this community highlights the importance of conserving less degraded areas to preserve the evolutionary diversity ...
