Evaluation of Bean Genotype Mixture and Ulvan‐Rich Algae Extract to Control Foliar Diseases and Enhance Yield [PDF]

Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 173, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the use of bean genotype mixture combined with preventive applications of an ulvan‐enriched algal extract (UEAE) for managing foliar diseases and improving yield in common beans. Field experiments were conducted during three growing seasons using two cultivars, IPR Tiziu and CF22, grown in pure stand or mixture, and ...

Effects of Dietary Marine Sulfated Polysaccharides Derived From Macroalgae on Intestinal Health of Nursery Pigs. [PDF]

Anim Sci J
ABSTRACT Post‐weaning stress in pigs leads to intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress. Macroalgae has gained attention with anti‐inflammatory and anti‐oxidative properties to mitigate these negative impacts. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of sulfated polysaccharides extracted from marine macroalgae (Ulva spp.

Anti-inflammatory potential of ulvan

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2023
Green seaweeds are a widespread group of marine macroalgae that could be regarded as biorenewable source of valuable compounds, in particular sulfated polysaccharides like ulvans with interesting biological properties. Among them, anti-inflammatory activity represents an interesting target, since ulvans could potentially avoid side effects of ...

Ulvans are Not Equal - Linkage and Substitution Patterns in Ulvan Polysaccharides Differ with Ulva Morphology

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2023
Ulva are hardy green seaweeds that contain the sulfated polysaccharide ulvan and grow in two distinct morphologies: foliose and tubular. The authors hypothesise that ulvan from tubular species are more structurally complex than ulvans from foliose species.
