Amino acid composition, protein content and calculation of nitrogen-to-protein conversion factors for 19 tropical seaweeds

Sergio O. Lourenço, Elisabete Barbarino, Joel Campos De‐Paula et al. · 1 Sep 2002

SUMMARY The use of nitrogen-to-protein conversion factors (N-Prot factors) is the most practical way of determining protein content. The accuracy of protein determination by this method depends on the establishment of N-Prot factors specific to individual species. Experimental data are needed to allow the use of this methodology with seaweeds. The present study was designed…

The phylogenetic relationship between the Chlamydomonadales and Chlorococcales inferred from 18SrDNA sequence data

Takeshi Nakayama, Shin Watanabe, Kaoru Mitsui et al. · 1 Mar 1996

SUMMARY Nuclear‐encoded small subunit ribosomal RNA gene (185rDNA) sequences were determined for Chlamydomonas moewusii Gerloff and five chlorococcalean algae ( Chlorococcum hypnosporum Starr; Chlorococcum oleofaciens Trainor et Bold; Chlorococcum sp.; Tetracystis aeria Brown et Bold; Protosiphon botryoides (Kützingl Klebs). All these algae are characterized by a clockwise CCW) flagellar apparatus. Phylogenetic trees were constructed from…

Research note: Identity of the Qingdao algal bloom

Frédérik Leliaert, Xiaowen Zhang, Naihao Ye et al. · 26 May 2009

SUMMARY In early July 2008, news agencies worldwide reported on a vast algal bloom that was threatening the upcoming Olympic sailing events in Qingdao, China. The identity of the culpable alga, however, remained undiscussed. We have identified the alga that caused the bloom by means of morphological and molecular data, including sequence data of the…

Molecular phylogenetic analyses of the Japanese Ulva and Enteromorpha (Ulvales, Ulvophyceae), with special reference to the free-floating Ulva

Satoshi Shimada, Masanori Hiraoka, Shinichi Nabata et al. · 1 Jun 2003

SUMMARY In order to elucidate the species composition of freefloating Ulva that cause green tide in several bays in Japan, and to clarify the generic status of Ulva and Enteromorpha (Ulvales, Ulvophyceae), the nuclear encoded internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region including the 5.8S gene and the plastid encoded large subunit of ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/ oxgenase…

Phycological Research template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Phycological Research format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Phycological Research template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Wiley format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Phycological Research use?
