Over the past two decades, molecular phylogenetic data have allowed evaluations of
hypotheses on the evolution of green algae based on vegetative morphological and …

The development of DNA barcodes for green algae would aid in their accurate and rapid
identification. This is particularly important for the green algae because in many species …

The phylogenetic position of Koliella, a chlorophyte characterized by Klebsormidium type
cell division, was inferred from analyses of partial 18S rDNA and partial 16S rDNA …

Although the combination of different genes in phylogenetic analyses is a promising
approach, the methodology is not well established and analyses often suffer from …

Sequences of the gene encoding the large subunit of RUBISCO (rbcL) for 30 genera in the
six currently recognized families of conjugating green algae (Desmidiaceae …

Nuclear-encoded SSU rDNA sequences have been obtained from 64 strains of conjugating
green algae (Zygnemophyceae, Streptophyta, Viridiplantae). Molecular phylogenetic …

Conjugates (Zygnematophyceae) represent the most species-rich (ca. 4000 spp) algal
lineage within the Streptophyta. Studies using various molecular markers have placed the …

The nuclear-encoded small subunit ribosomal DNA gene of many lichen-forming green
algae in the genus Trebouxia contains a group I intron at Escherichia coli genic position …

One family within the Euascomycetes Ascomycota), the lichen-forming Physciaceae, is
particularly rich in nuclear ribosomal [r] DNA group I introns. We used phylogenetic analyses …

Nuclear‐encoded small subunit (SSU) rDNA, 1506 group I introns, and chloroplast rbcL
genes were sequenced from 97 strains representing the largest desmid genus Cosmarium …
