A good understanding of the mechanisms and magnitude of the impact of invasive alien
species on ecosystem services and biodiversity is a prerequisite for the efficient prioritisation …

The green algal genus Ulva is widely distributed around all continents. Plants with both
distromatic or monostromatic thalli now form a single taxon based on ITS rDNA and rbc L …

The northern Portuguese coast is a biogeographic transition zone where many macroalgal
species have their distribution limits; it is thus a particularly interesting region for …

This paper explores how a lack of taxonomic expertise, and by implication a dearth of
taxonomic products such as identification tools, has hindered progress in understanding and …

The green algal genus Ulva includes a speciose group of marine macroalgae inhabiting
shallow seas worldwide. Although algal blooms in Asia highlight the opportunistic nature of …

Bacterial communities play an essential role for the function of marine macroalgae. Recent
work has shown that bacterial communities associated with individual macroalgae possess …

Ulva L innaeus (U lvophyceae, U lvales) is a genus of green algae widespread in different
aquatic environments. Members of this genus show a very simple morphology and a certain …

There is a mild difference of opinion on the status of this book to be found in the first pages:
The honorary Head of Department at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences …

Sequences of the nuclear internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) region and the chloroplast
rbcL gene were obtained from 86 specimens of Ulva (including “Enteromorpha”) from five of …

Distromatic foliose blades of the algal genus Ulva are notoriously difficult to identify due to
their simple morphologies and few diagnostic characteristics that often exhibit intraspecific …
