Phosphorylation of MAPK-like proteins in three intertidal macroalgae under stress conditions
The presence and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-like proteins in 3 macroalgae with different morphology and phylogeny (Ulva rigida, Ellisolandia elongata and Cystoseira tamariscifolia) were studied during the experimental workshop ...

A practical perspective on ulvan extracted from green algae [PDF]
Researchers have many times turned their attention to nature and biological processes to develop novel technologies and materials. In a medical perspective, nature-based products are believed to be a strategic alternative approach to the use of fully

Review of available DNA sequence data: our understanding of macroalgal diversity in New Zealand
ABSTRACT Understanding our biodiversity is of the utmost importance to determine evolutionary histories of organisms, reliably detect new incursions and select species for commercial operations. Advances in molecular techniques have provided a strong tool to facilitate a deeper understanding of our biodiversity. Macroalgae are a polyphyletic group that

Polysaccharides from Enteromorpha prolifera Improve Glucose Metabolism in Diabetic Rats
This study investigated the effects of polysaccharides from Enteromorpha prolifera (PEP) on glucose metabolism in a rat model of diabetes mellitus (DM). PEP (0, 150, 300, and 600 mg/kg) was administered intragastrically to rats for four weeks. After treatment, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and insulin (INS) levels were measured, and the insulin ...

Divergent copies of the large inverted repeat in the chloroplast genomes of ulvophycean green algae
The chloroplast genomes of many algae and almost all land plants carry two identical copies of a large inverted repeat (IR) sequence that can pair for flip-flop recombination and undergo expansion/contraction. Although the IR has been lost multiple times

New phylogenetic hypotheses for the core Chlorophyta based on chloroplast sequence data [PDF]
Phylogenetic relationships in the green algal phylum Chlorophyta have long been subject to debate, especially at higher taxonomic ranks (order, class).

Green algae are of great economic importance. Seaweed is consumed fresh or as seasoning in Japan. The commercial value is determined by quality, color, and flavor and is also strongly influenced by the production area. Our research, based on solid phase microextraction gas chromatography mass spectrometry (SPME‐GC‐MS), has revealed that volatile ...

Culturing requirements and commercial quality of four different species of Ulva (Ulvales, chlorophyta) [PDF]
The commercial production of Ulva spp. by aquaculture is gaining in importance due both to the qualitative and quantitative increase in the use of the harvested biomass and its new applications in inland IMTA techniques.
