Three Chondrophycus species have been recorded primarily based on morphology from Korea: Chondrophycus cartilagineus , C. kangjaewonii, and C. undulatus. In this study, we collected 25 Chondrophycus samples from Korea and Japan, and confir...
The population genetic variability of brackish water species is of fundamental importance for the understanding of their evolutionary history and ecological adaptation to drastic environmental changes. Gracilaria tenuistipitata is a euryhaline and eurythermal species that...
Historical climate changes significantly influenced the phylogeographical patterns of intertidal macroalgae. The brown alga Colpomenia sinuosa was common in warmer waters worldwide, providing an ideal model for genetic diversity and distribution research. C. sinuosa
Species and genera in the dinoflagellate family Kareniaceae have attracted the attention of scientists, aquaculture farmers, and government officials because many species in this family cause harmful algal blooms associated with the mortality of vertebrates and invertebrates. In...
Snow algae are excellent models for elucidating adaptations to abiotic stresses that characterize their extreme habitat. In cold-adapted microorganisms, changes in lipid composition represent an important strategy that enables survival at low temperatures. However, our knowledge...
This study presents a comprehensive analysis of gymnodimine-series toxins produced by Alexandrium ostenfeldii (K- 1354) using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Three peaks with identical precursor ions but different retention times were observed, suggest...
