Temperate seaweeds Himanthalia elongata and Fucus vesiculosus significantly reduce rumen methane emissions in vitro due to their high phlorotannin content

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Global food insecurity and the fact that food production contributes around 30% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is a major planetary challenge. Ruminant products are widely consumed since they are macro‐ and micronutrient dense; however, ruminants produce enteric methane (CH4), a potent GHG.

Universal plastid primers for Chlorophyta and Rhodophyta [PDF]

European Journal of Phycology, 2004
To date, the majority of molecular genetic studies in algae have utilized a fairly limited range of markers such as the plastid rbcL gene and spacer, the mitochondrial cox2-3 spacer or the nuclear ribosomal DNA and spacers. The lack of available markers has been particularly problematic in studies of within-species variation. Whilst microsatellites are

Similitud de la ficoflora marina en zonas del Atlántico Occidental Tropical y Subtropical

Caldasia, 2019
Las macroalgas constituyen un componente muy importante de la biodiversidad marina por su papel en los ecosistemas marino-costeros como productores primarios, competidores por recursos y bioindica-dores de problemas ambientales.

Production and fate of macroalgal carbon in the ocean: How much do macroalgal organics matter?

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract Global carbon sequestration by macroalgae is hypothesized to rival rates in other blue carbon ecosystems. However, quantifying macroalgal carbon sequestration is challenging as it is hypothesized to occur outside macroalgal ecosystems, with 73% of sequestration occurring when dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is exported to deep ocean waters.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Polyopes lancifolius and comparison with related species in Halymeniales (Rhodophyta)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Polyopes lancifolius is a species of Halymeniales, the fifth species-rich order within Rhodophyta. Using next-generation sequencing techniques, we recovered the complete mitochondrial genome of P. lancifolius, i.e.

Extending monitoring with sediment archive approaches: Comparison of biomonitoring, metabarcoding, and biomarkers to assess past phytoplankton dynamics

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Sedimentary archives can provide valuable insights into the study of anthropogenic impacts on marine and limnic ecosystems over centennial and millennial timescales, potentially extending the temporal breadth of observation‐based biomonitoring.

Rhodolith Beds Heterogeneity along the Apulian Continental Shelf (Mediterranean Sea)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Rhodolith beds represent a key habitat worldwide, from tropical to polar ecosystems. Despite this habitat is considered a hotspot of biodiversity, providing a suite of ecosystem goods and services, still scarce quantitative information is available thus ...

The Linnaean revolution – A history of the Natural System

TAXON, EarlyView.
Abstract A very brief history of the Natural System (NS) is presented, focusing on angiosperms. The account is divided into four parts. The first, “Setting the stage”, gives an outline of my understanding of evolutionary ontology and how this reflects on taxonomy.

Preliminary Study on the Activity of Phycobiliproteins against Botrytis cinerea

Marine Drugs, 2020
Phycobiliproteins (PBPs) are proteins of cyanobacteria and some algae such as rhodophytes. They have antimicrobial, antiviral, antitumor, antioxidative, and anti-inflammatory activity at the human level, but there is a lack of knowledge on their ...

Vegetation dominantly shapes the elevational patterns of archaeal and protistan communities and their ecological functions in the Hengduan Mountains, Tibetan Plateau

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While elevational patterns of soil bacterial and fungal communities in mountain ecosystems have been well documented, the assembly processes of soil archaeal and protistan communities, and their linkage with ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF), remain poorly understood ...
