This means that there is a large extension to obtain these photoautotrophic organisms. Algae have undergone a boom in recent years, with consequent discoveries and advances in this field. Algae are not only of high ecological value but also of great economic importance. Possible applications of algae are very diverse and include anti-biofilm activity, production of biofuels, bioremediation, as fertilizer, as fish feed, as food or food ingredients, in pharmacology (since they show antioxidant or contraceptive activities), in cosmeceutical formulation, and in such other applications as filters or for obtaining minerals. In this context, algae as food can be of help to maintain or even improve human health, and there is a growing interest in new products called functional foods, which can promote such a healthy state.

Received Laminarialean species (so-called kelps) are the largest photosynthetic organisms in aquatic environments, 14 March 2013 constituting significant ecological components of coastal ecosystems. The largest kelps such as Macrocystis exhibit differentiation between stipe and blade, as well as buoyancy to maintain the distal portion at the Accepted water’s surface for photosynthesis, while bearing reproductive structures only near the base on special blades 7 August 2013 (sporophylls). There is a considerable gap between basic kelps such as Chorda and derived kelps, and the evolution of kelp specialization remains unclear. Here we report novel reproductive adaptations in the Published recently discovered species Aureophycus aleuticus; unlike any known kelps, A. aleuticus forms zoidangia 22 August 2013 only on the expanded, disc-shaped holdfast. Molecular phylogeny suggests that A. aleuticus is most basal among derived kelps. Because Aureophycus lacks any of the elaborate anatomical structures found in other derived kelps, we suggest that it exhibits some of the most ancestral morphological features of kelps. Correspondence and requests for materials aminarialean species (so-called kelps) are the largest photosynthetic organisms in aquatic environments, should be addressed to sometimes exceeding 50 m in length, and constitute a significant ecological element of coastal ecosystems in H.K.

  • Class: Phaeophyceae Phaeophyceae, Known As The
    Class: Phaeophyceae Phaeophyceae, known as the brown algae, is a large class of marine macrophytes with over 250 genera and approximately 1500 species. The class is a large group of multicellular algae, including many seaweeds located in colder waters within the Northern Hemisphere. Most brown algae live in marine environments, where they play an important role both as food and as habitat. Colour of the Phaeophyceae members is due to the presence of large amounts of the xanthophyll fucoxanthin in their chloroplasts, which conceals the rest of the pigments as well as from the phaeophycean tannins that might be present. Thalli of the class range from filaments to psuedoparenchymatous to parenchymatous. Its cell walls are composed of cellulose fibrils in a mucopolysaccharide. Phaeophyceae chlrophyllsa, c1, c2, β- carotene, fukoxanthin, violaxanthin, dinoxanthin and diadinoxanthin.

This is the first record of the species and order from East Asia or North- western Pacific Ocean. This alga differs from all other brown algae in having uniseriate filaments formed by apical gr owth and unique disc-shaped plurilocular sporangia without a stalk cell. These morphological features characterize the order Discosporangiales, which is considered as the most primitive in the all brown algal orders.
