Molecular analysis of physiological responses to changes in nitrogen in a marine macroalga, Porphyra yezoensis (Rhodophyta)
The rhodophyte seaweed Porphyra yezoensis, known more commonly world-wide as “nori”, is an important commercial crop in Japan. Cultivation of nori in Japan is often affected by outbreaks of “iroochi”, a discolora...

Physiological and biochemical responses to thermal and salinity stresses in a sterile mutant of Ulva pertusa (Ulvales, Chlorophyta)
Like other organisms in the marine ecosystem, macroalgae are subjected to intense environmental stresses, particularly in the intertidal zone. The green seaweed Ulva inhabits rocky intertidal zones worldwide, sug...

Neutral lipids in macroalgal spores and their role in swimming
We followed changes in the neutral lipid content of actively swimming zoospores of the palm kelp Pterygophora californica in a laboratory experiment to investigate the degree to which spore swimming is fueled by...

T-DNA Insertion Mutagenesis and the Untagged Mutants
Insertion mutagenesis is defined as the insertion of DNA of known sequence into a gene. In plants there are two types of insertion elements that have been used for this purpose: transposons and T-DNA. Numerous...
