Parachloroidium gen. nov. (Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta), a novel genus of coccoid green algae from subaerial corticolous biofilms
The Watanabea clade of the Trebouxiophyceae included mostly unicellular coccoid microalgae that thrived in various terrestrial microhabitats. The diversity of these morphologically uniform microalgae was little known, and several new genus-level lineages had recently been described on the basis of molecular data. In this study, we provided a taxonomic description of a new trebouxiophycean genus...
متن کاملXylochloris irregularis gen. et sp. nov. (Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta), a novel subaerial coccoid green alga
The phylogenetic diversity of subaerial coccoid green algae remains still poorly explored. We characterised in detail two unicellular green algae found on tropical trees in Singapore. Light microscopy revealed morphological identity of these two strains. Depending on the age of cultures, the cells were spherical to cylindrical, and ranged in size from 13.5 to 20.5 mm. Each cell contained a pyre...
متن کاملKalinella bambusicola gen. et sp. nov. (Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta), a novel coccoid Chlorella-like subaerial alga from Southeast Asiapre_534 159..169
The traditional green algal genus Chlorella, which comprised coccoid algae surrounded by a smooth cell wall and reproducing solely by autosporulation, has proved to be polyphyletic and extremely diverse in phylogenetic terms. We studied a new subaerial Chlorella-like strain CAUP H7901 and morphological, ultrastructural, and molecular phylogenetic investigations indicated that it represents a ne...
متن کاملPseudomarvania, gen. nov. (Chlorophyta, Trebouxiophyceae), a new genus for “budding” subaerial green algae Marvania aerophytica Neustupa et ŠejNohová and Stichococcus ampulliformis haNda
Several unicellular green algae exhibit a unique type of cell division, which can be likened to budding. These algae comprise Spongiochrysis hawaiiensis in Cladophorales (Ulvophyceae) and Stichococcus ampulliformis and species of the genus Marvania in the class Trebouxiophyceae. We determined the 18S rRNA gene sequence from Marvania aerophytica NEustupa et šEjNohová and inferred its phylogeneti...
متن کاملHylodesmus singaporensis gen. et sp. nov., a new autosporic subaerial green alga (Scenedesmaceae, Chlorophyta) from Singapore.
The algal flora of subaerial habitats in the tropics remains largely unexplored, despite the fact that it potentially encompasses a wealth of new evolutionary diversity. Here we present a detailed morphological and molecular characterization of an autosporic coccoid green alga isolated from decaying wood in a natural forest in Singapore. Depending on culture conditions, this alga formed globula...
