Exhaustive reanalysis of barcode sequences from public repositories highlights ongoing misidentifications and impacts taxa diversity and distribution.

Accurate species identification often relies on public repositories to compare the barcode sequences of the investigated individual(s) with taxonomically assigned sequences. However, the accuracy of identifications in public repositories is often questionable, and the names originally given are rarely updated. For instance, species of the Sea Lettuce (Ulva spp.

Comparing the effectiveness of twine- and binder-seeding in the Laminariales species and .

The continuing expansion of seaweed cultivation could assist in ensuring future global food security. The Laminariales species and are each cultivated for food across their European ranges. The predominant method for cultivating European kelps involves growing juveniles on twine within a hatchery which is then deployed at a farm site.

The Unique Lipidomic Signatures of Can Be Used to Pinpoint Their Geographic Origin.

The aquaculture of macroalgae for human consumption and other high-end applications is experiencing unprecedented development in European countries, with the brown algae being the flag species. However, environmental conditions in open sea culture sites are often unique, which may impact the biochemical composition of cultured macroalgae. The present study compared the elemental compositions (CHNS), fatty acid profiles, and lipidomes of originating from three distinct locations (France, Norway, and the United Kingdom).

Early development and substrate twine selection for the cultivation of (Yendo) Fensholt under laboratory conditions.

The phaeophyte macroalgae is under investigation as a cultivation crop within its native range in SE Asia, alongside other members of the genus. During the critical hatchery phase, germlings are grown to ≥ several millimeters ready for outplanting. By optimising the growth medium and twine substrate used for the germling attachment, hatcheries can become more efficient and cost-effective.

Decontamination treatments to eliminate problem biota from macroalgal tank cultures of , and .

The effect of a range of chemical disinfectants at different concentration and exposure times was investigated on five macroalgal species and the marine gastropod spp. , and are commercially valuable and are often cultivated in tanks for food or feed. and are common epiphytes of and cultures, whilst spp.
