چکیده
The first record of the terrestrial green alga Trentepohlia aurea for Croatia was made in 1890 area Krka River, and has remained until this day only globally widespread species country. During studies related to aquatic vegetation, finally rediscovered from Plitvice Lakes, Gorski kotar region near Vukova Gorica village, after 130 years during which no records were made. All recorded populations formed round, woolly, orange-red patches on surface rocks concrete walls, partly forming a community with bryophytes lichens. In some cases these mixed communities, thalli overgrew blocking their access nutrients, water light. This long period lack T. is mostly consequence discontinuity research certain algal groups Croatia.

Trentepohlia is a genus of subaerial green algae which is widespread in tropical, subtropical, and also temperate regions with humid climates. For many years, small-scale Trentepohlia coverage had been found on the rocks of some glacier valleys on the northern slopes of Mt. Gongga, China. However, since 2005, in the Yajiageng river valley, most of the rocks are covered with deep red coloured al...

The requirements of micronutrients for biomass and hydrocarbon production in Botryococcus braunii UTEX 572 were studied using response surface methodology. The concentrations of four micronutrients (iron, manganese, molybdenum, and nickel) were manipulated to achieve the best performance of B. braunii in laboratory conditions. The responses of algal biomass and hydrocarbon to the concentration ...
متن کاملPhylogenetic analysis identifies the invertebrate pathogen Helicosporidium sp. as a green alga (Chlorophyta).
Historically, the invertebrate pathogens of the genus Helicosporidium were considered to be either protozoa or fungi, but the taxonomic position of this group has not been considered since 1931. Recently, a Helicosporidium sp., isolated from the blackfly Simulium jonesi Stone & Snoddy (Diptera: Simuliidae), has been amplified in the heterologous host Helicoverpa zea. Genomic DNA has been extrac...

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...

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...
