Mineral Content of Mediterranean Seaweeds, Padina pavonica L. (Pheophytae, Ulva lactuca L. and Ulva linza L. (Chlorophytae) for Biofertilizing Use
Nowadays, organic fertilizers play an important role in agriculture. They are progressively substituting chemical fertilizers to prevent their harmful impact on human health and the environment. They provide high yield, better quality products and a shorter period of harvesting crops. In this study, the mineral elements: primary macronutrient (N, PO3- and K+), secondary macronutrient: (Ca2+, Mg...
متن کاملGreen Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles using Ulva flexousa from the Persian Gulf, Iran
The present study focused on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles using the aqueous extract of Ulva flexousa (green seaweed). Ten ml of the aqueous extract of alga was mixed with 90 ml of 1mM aqueous AgNO3 solution for reducing of Ag+ ions. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis spectra, XRD (X-ray diffraction), TEM (Transmission electron microscopy) and FT-IR (Fouri...
متن کاملStrong Endemism of Bloom-Forming Tubular Ulva in Indian West Coast, with Description of Ulva paschima Sp. Nov. (Ulvales, Chlorophyta)
Ulva intestinalis and Ulva compressa are two bloom-forming morphologically-cryptic species of green seaweeds widely accepted as cosmopolitan in distribution. Previous studies have shown that these are two distinct species that exhibit great morphological plasticity with changing seawater salinity. Here we present a phylogeographic assessment of tubular Ulva that we considered belonging to this ...
متن کاملSeasonal and Spatial Patterns of “Green Tides” (Ulvoid Algal Blooms) and Related Water Quality Parameters in the Coastal Waters of Washington State, USA1
This study examines the species composition and seasonality of “green tides” (i.e., blooms of ulvoid macroalgae including Enteromorpha Link, Monostroma Thuret, Ulva (L.) Thuret, and Ulvaria Ruprecht spp.) in the northeastern Pacific region. Macroalgal blooms have been blamed for eradicating seagrass meadows, altering faunal community structure, and creating unsightly, malodorous piles on beache...
متن کاملFermentation of green alga sea-lettuce (Ulva sp) and metabolism of its sulphate by human colonic microbiota in a semi-continuous culture system.
The green alga, sea-lettuce (Ulva sp), could be considered as a new source of dietary fibre. Ulva, however, contains high levels of sulphate, part of which is chemically bound in soluble polymers (ulvan). The purpose of this study was to assess the fermentation characteristics and sulphate metabolism of Ulva and ulvan by human faecal bacteria fermentation system using a semi-continuous fermente...
