Tandem integration of circular plasmid contributes significantly to the expanded mitochondrial genomes of the green-tide forming alga Ulva meridionalis (Ulvophyceae, Chlorophyta) [PDF]
Comparative mitogenomics of Ulva species have revealed remarkable variations in genome size due to the integration of exogenous DNA fragments, the proliferation of group I/II introns, and the change of repeat sequences.

Probing rapid carbon fixation in fast-growing seaweed Ulva meridionalis using stable isotope 13C-labelling [PDF]
The high growth rate of Ulva seaweeds makes it a potential algal biomass resource. In particular, Ulva meridionalis grows up to fourfold a day. Here, we demonstrated strong carbon fixation by U.

Draft Genome Sequences of Marine Bacteria, Degraders of the Sulfated Polysaccharide Ulvan, Extracted from a Green Alga, Ulva meridionalis [PDF]
We present the draft genome sequences of bacterial strains of the genera Alteromonas and Tenacibaculum . Polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs) were found in all of the ulvan utilizers. Comparison of the PULs will elucidate the degradation pathway for ulvan.

Fourfold daily growth rate in multicellular marine alga Ulva meridionalis [PDF]
AbstractMicroalgae with high growth rates have been considered as promising organisms to replace fossil resources with contemporary primary production as a renewable source. However, their microscopic size makes it hard to be harvested for industrial applications. In this regard, multicellular macroalgae are more suitable for harvesting.

Complete chloroplast genome of Ulva meridionalis (Ulvales: Ulvaceae): an extremely fast-growing green macroalgae [PDF]
Ulva meridionalis is one of the causal green macroalgae for green tides in Japan and exists in coastal areas of China. In the present study, complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Ulva meridionalis was reported, and the total length of this species
