Coralline algae are globally distributed benthic primary producers that secrete calcium carbonate skeletons. In the context of ocean acidification, they have received much recent attention due to the potential vulnerability of their high‐Mg calcite ...

The first identification of fossil Mesophyllum in accordance to the modern taxonomic concepts in coralline algae [PDF]
Despite their common occurrence, the potential of coralline algae is not yet fully exploited in paleoecological reconstructions. The reasons are mainly grounded in the taxonomic inconsistency caused by poor preservation or insufficient knowledge of the ...

A laser-scanning confocal microscopy study of carrageenan in red algae from seaweed farms near the Caribbean entrance of the Panama Canal [PDF]
Kappaphycus alvarezii (Doty) Doty ex P.C. Silva, a red macroalga, is a commercial source of carrageenan, a widely used polysaccharide compound important in the food and pharmaceutical industries, in nanotechnology, and in pharmacological applications ...

Short term effects of irradiance on the growth of Pterocladiella capillacea (Gelidiales, Rhodophyta) [PDF]
Pterocladiella capillacea has been economically exploited for agar extraction in the Azores for many years. Harvesting dropped to a full stop in the early 1990s due to a population collapse, but restarted in 2013.

Abstract Present study is the first quantitative and coherent presentation of the submerged marine vegetation along the Greenland east coast, from 65.5°N to 76.8°N, based on data obtained from 286 underwater video transects. Based on cluster analysis, four different marine submerged vegetation community figurations were identified: a southern and ...

Exploring the Diversity of Red Microalgae for Exopolysaccharide Production
Microalgae constitute a remarkable biological diversity but a limited number of them have been the object of study for their ability to produce exoplysaccharides (EPS). Among them, the red marine microalgae Porphyridium or Rhodella produce sulphated EPS,

Universal plastid primers for Chlorophyta and Rhodophyta [PDF]
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

ABSTRACT Amplicon sequencing tools such as metabarcoding are commonly used for thorough characterisation of microbial diversity in natural samples. They mostly rely on the amplification of conserved universal markers, mainly ribosomal genes, allowing the taxonomic assignment of barcodes.
