While we are not able to all be together physically again this year, using what we learned from last year and having more time to prepare the current program director (PD) Schonna Manning with the aid of our previous PD Amy Carlile have put together an amazing program for us all. This program will have all of the traditional interactions that our live meetings have had, from talks and posters, to plenaries and symposia, from workshops to our business meeting. We will even be having a virtual auction hosted by the Chair of Board of Trustees Morgan Vis! This meeting will have everything except the actual food. And by everything, I mean the return of the Bold Award and the Lewin Award as well! With well over 600 attendees this will be the largest PSA annual meeting ever! I believe this is because we all enjoy algae so much and the cost (free) had nothing to do with this record attendance. Towards the future we will be using all that we have and will learn about virtual meetings to extend the reach of our future meetings to allow for greater attendance and participation, so stay tuned for more information. Enjoy this (last) all virtual meeting, and looking forward to our meetings in reality, with a splash of virtual for taste. Eric W. Linton PSA President 2021 v PSA Organizing Committee Message While we all wish we could meet in person, we hope that you enjoy the virtual meeting through Whova. Be sure to create an account/login to access the meeting content. We have an amazing program with >120 contributed talks, 60 posters, and 25 lightning talks. Please use the Whova platform to attend sessions, connect with colleagues, and continue your scientific discussions. Should you miss a talk (or two!), all presentations will be available for viewing through Whova up to two weeks after the meeting adjourns. Thank you for your participation to help make PSA2021 the largest PSA meeting ever! - Schonna & Amy vi PSA Meeting Code of Conduct PSA meetings are open to PSA members as well as others interested in phycology.

  • Articulated Coralline Algae of the Gulf of California, Mexico, I: Amphiroa Lamouroux
    SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MARINE SCIENCES • NUMBER 9 Articulated Coralline Algae of the Gulf of California, Mexico, I: Amphiroa Lamouroux James N. Norris and H. William Johansen SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1981 ABSTRACT Norris, James N., and H. William Johansen. Articulated Coralline Algae of the Gulf of California, Mexico, I: Amphiroa Lamouroux. Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences, number 9, 29 pages, 18 figures, 1981.—Amphiroa (Coral- linaceae, Rhodophyta) is a tropical and subtropical genus of articulated coralline algae and is prominent in shallow waters of the Gulf of California, Mexico. Taxonomic and distributional investigations of Amphiroa from the Gulf have revealed the presence of seven species: A. beauvoisn Lamouroux, A. brevianceps Dawson, A. magdalensis Dawson, A. misakiensis Yendo, A. ngida Lamouroux, A. valomoides Yendo, and A. van-bosseae Lemoine. Only two of these species names are among the 16 taxa of Amphiroa previously reported from this body of water; all other names are now considered synonyms. Of the seven species in the Gulf of California, A. beauvoisii, A. misakiensis, A. valomoides and A. van-bosseae are common, while A. brevianceps, A. magdalensis, and A. ngida are rare and poorly known. None of these species is endemic to the Gulf, and four of them, A. beauvoisii, A. misakiensis, A. valomoides, and A. ngida, also occur in Japan. OFFICIAL PUBLICATION DATE is handstamped in a limited number of initial copies and is recorded in the Institution's annual report, Smithsonian Year.

The mapping methodology is summarized in Harney et al (2008). This data summary report provides information on geomorphic and biological features of 4,694 km of shoreline mapped for the 2012 survey of Northwest Alaska. The habitat inventory is comprised of 3,469 along-shore segments (units), averaging 1,353 m in length (note that the AK Coast 1:63,360 digital shoreline shows this mapping area encompassing 3,095 km, but mapping data based on better digital shorelines represent the same area with 4,694 km stretching along the coast). Organic/estuary shorelines (such as estuaries) are mapped along 744.4 km (15.9%) of the study area. Bedrock shorelines (Shore Types 1-5) are extremely limited along the shoreline with only 0.2% mapped. Close to half of the shoreline is classified as Tundra (44.3%) with low, vegetated peat the most commonly occurring tundra shore type. Approximately a third (34.1%) of the mapped coastal environment is characterized as sediment-dominated shorelines (Shore Types 21-30).

  • Is the Red Alga Meristotheca Papulosa Annual? -Monitoring Of
    Aquacult. Sci. 67(1),49-56(2019) Is the red alga Meristotheca papulosa annual? - Monitoring of tagged thalli at Banda, Tateyama, Central Pacific coast of Japan- 1,* 1, 2 1 1 Boryuan CHEN , Shingo AKITA , Akito UEHARA and Daisuke FUJITA Abstract: Meristotheca papulosa is a commercially important red alga used for human consumption. It has been reported as an annual species in Kagoshima Prefecture but has been suggested to be perennial in Kochi Prefecture. In the present study, thalli were indirectly monitored at Banda, Chiba Prefecture. A caged culture and feeding test recording were also conducted. Among the nine thalli tagged in March or April 2016, three survived the winter but disappeared in July 2017. After reaching a maximum length in May, the thallus size decreased from June to November 2016. However, the thalli began to regrow in December 2016. Bite marks were common on the thalli; appearance of herbivorous fishes was recorded by the interval camera. An in-situ culture was conducted by transplanting six thalli each inside and outside of a cage from March to October 2016. After reaching the maximum weight in June, thalli located outside of the cage disappeared in July, but those located inside of the cage survived until September. Aplysia parvula, which was able to intrude the cage, were noted to be influential grazers on the thalli. These results suggest that M. papulosa is perennial but its longevity is affected by wave action and grazing. Key words: Meristotheca papulosa; Perennial; Caging; Grazer were Kagoshima Prefecture in Kyushu (250 to Introduction 300 tons/year) and Izu Islands on the central Pacific coast of Japan (200 to 300 tons/year) Meristotheca papulosa (Montagne) J.

Douglas Adams ABSTRACT The increasing demand for seaweed extracts has led to the introduction of non-native seaweeds for farming purposes in many tropical regions. Such intentional introductions can lead to spread of non-native seaweeds from farming areas, which can become established in and alter the dynamics of the recipient ecosystems. While tropical seaweeds are of great interest for aquaculture, and have received much attention as pests in the coral reef literature, little is known about the problems and potential of natural populations, or the role of natural seaweed beds in the tropical seascape. This thesis aims to investigate the spread of non-native genetic strains of the tropical macroalga Eucheuma denticulatum, which have been intentionally introduced for seaweed farming purposes in East Africa, and to evaluate the state of the genetically distinct but morphologically similar native populations. Additionally it aims to investigate the ecological role of seaweed beds in terms of the habitat utilization by fish and mobile invertebrate epifauna. The thesis also aims to evaluate the potential of native populations of eucheumoid seaweeds in regard to seaweed farming.

Blaustein Institutes for Desert Research, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Sede Boqer Campus, Midreshet Ben-Gurion 8499000, Israel; [email protected] (B.L.); [email protected] (S.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +972-8656-3478 Received: 18 December 2019; Accepted: 14 February 2020; Published: 21 February 2020 Abstract: The dynamic nutrient availability and photon flux density of diatom habitats necessitate buffering capabilities in order to maintain metabolic homeostasis. This is accomplished by the biosynthesis and turnover of storage lipids, which are sequestered in lipid droplets (LDs). LDs are an organelle conserved among eukaryotes, composed of a neutral lipid core surrounded by a polar lipid monolayer. LDs shield the intracellular environment from the accumulation of hydrophobic compounds and function as a carbon and electron sink. These functions are implemented by interconnections with other intracellular systems, including photosynthesis and autophagy. Since diatom lipid production may be a promising objective for biotechnological exploitation, a deeper understanding of LDs may offer targets for metabolic engineering. In this review, we provide an overview of diatom LD biology and biotechnological potential. Keywords: diatoms; lipid droplets; triacylglycerols 1. Introduction LDs are an organelle composed of a core of neutral lipids, mostly triacylglycerol (TAG), surrounded by a polar lipid monolayer [1,2].
