Chloroplast Genome Traits Correlate With Organismal Complexity and Ecological Traits in Chlorophyta
A positive relationship between cell size and chloroplast genome size within chloroplast-bearing protists has been hypothesized in the past and shown in some case studies, but other factors influencing chloroplast genome size during the evolution of ...

A Comparative Analysis of Receptor-Like Kinases in Chlorophyta Reveals the Presence of Putative Cell Wall Integrity Sensors. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Receptor‐like kinases (RLKs) detect external and internal signals, triggering responses essential for growth and adaptation. Among internal cues, cell wall integrity (CWI) sensing plays a key role, as changes in cell wall structure activate responses critical for development and defense.

Cultivating the macroalgal holobiont: effects of integrated multi-trophic aquaculture on the microbiome of Ulva rigida (chlorophyta) [PDF]
Ulva is a ubiquitous macroalgal genus of commercial interest. Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) systems promise large-scale production of macroalgae due to their high productivity and environmental sustainability.

Environmental Factors, Not Biotic Competitive Interactions, Drive the Relative Abundance of Diatoms and Chlorophyta in the Coastal Areas of the Beibu Gulf: Evidence From 18S rDNA Metabarcoding and Partial Least Squares-Path Modeling Analysis. [PDF]
Using high‐throughput sequencing (HTS) analysis, a negative correlation was found between Bacillariophyta and Chlorophyta near the Dafeng River Estuary (DRE) and the Sanniang Bay (SNB) located in the Beibu Gulf, China. The partial least squares‐path modeling (PLS‐PM) analysis showed that both the differing responses of Chlorophyta and Bacillariophyta ...

Different fates of the chloroplast tufA gene following its transfer to the nucleus in green algae [PDF]
Previous work suggested that the tufA gene, encoding protein synthesis elongation factor Tu, was transferred from the chloroplast to the nucleus within the green algal lineage giving rise to land plants.

Checklist of the benthic marine macroalgae from Algeria, part II: Ulvophyceae
The seaweed diversity of the Mediterranean is still not completely known, especially in some areas of its African coasts. As an effort to complete a more detailed catalogue to fill such gap, an updated checklist of seaweeds from Algeria, based on updated

Mitochondrial genomes and phylogenomic analysis of Ulva lactuca Linnaeus (Ulvophyceae, Chlorophyta)
Two mitogenomes of Ulva lactuca Linnaeus, one from Florida, USA and another nearly complete mtDNA from Chile, had previously been sequenced. Here, the complete mitogenome of U. lactuca from Shantou, China was sequenced and compared with them.

Chemical Characterization of Mediterranean Macroalgae With a Focus on Antioxidant Molecules Through the Use of Liquid Chromatographic Techniques. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Seaweeds represent an excellent vegetable protein resource capable of supporting the objectives of the sustainable blue economy. Today, attention toward algae is growing, due to their applications, both in biofuel production and as an alternative source of healthy food and nutraceuticals.
