An enormous body of research is focused on finding ways to commercialize carotenoids produced by the unicellular
green alga, Haematococcus, often without the benefit of a sound phylogenetic assessment. Evidence of cryptic diversity
in the genus means that comparing resu...
Accurately identifying species is the basis of all biological studies. There has been much confusion in the identification
of Grateloupiacean species, which have finely pinnate gross morphology similar to Grateloupia filicina (the type species
of the family). The obje...
Exploring mixotrophy of dinoflagellate species is critical to understanding red-tide dynamics and dinoflagellate evolution. Some species in the dinoflagellate genus Karenia have caused harmful algal blooms. Among 10 Karenia species, the
mixotrophic ability of onl...
The mortality rate of red-tide dinoflagellates owing to predation is a major parameter that affects their population dynamics.
The dinoflagellates Ansanella granifera and Ansanella sp. occasionally cause red tides. To understand the interactions
between common he...
The oomycete pathogens Pythium porphyrae, causing red rot disease, and Olpidiopsis spp. causing Olpidiopsis-blight,
cause serious economic losses to Pyropia sea farms in Korea. During the washing step for Pyropia processing, these
pathogens...
Obesity-induced inflammation is crucial in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. In this study, we
investigated the effects of the Gracilaria chorda (GC) on lipid accumulation and obesity-induced inflammatory changes
or glucose homeostasis in cel...
