Article Abstract
Fungal communities associated with macroalgae remain largely unexplored. To characterize algicolous fungal communities using culture dependent methods, macroalgae were collected from different sampling sites in the Ria de Aveiro estuary, Portugal. From a collection of 486 isolates that were obtained, 213 representative isolates were selected through microsatellite-primed PCR (MSP-PCR) fingerprinting analysis. The collection yielded 33 different genera, which were identified using the ITS region of the rDNA. The results revealed that the most abundant taxa in all collections were -like species: , , and . The fungal community composition varied with macroalgae species. Through multilocus phylogenetic analyses based on ITS, , and sequences, in addition to detailed morphological data, we propose sp. nov. (type strain=CMG 28=MUM 19.39) and sp. nov. (type strain=CMG 29=MUM 19.40) as novel species.

The prevalence of postpartum mental illness is steadily increasing, a tendency that was exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Recent studies show that maternal depression is no longer confined to the perinatal period, and this necessitates long-term assessment and support for maternal mental health. It is critical to identify the factors that are related to depression among mothers, and this requires the development of integrated mental and physical health care encompassing both psychological aspects and intestinal microbiota, physical conditions, and dietary habits.

Although the role of phytohormones in higher plants is well established, their role in macroalgae remains poorly understood. 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) is the immediate precursor of the plant hormone ethylene. However, recent studies suggested that ACC also acts as a signaling molecule to regulate growth and development independently of ethylene biosynthesis in land plants and red algae.

Seaweed extracts are promising plant biostimulants for viticulture, but their effects on white winegrape cultivars grown under cool climates remain fairly undocumented. Furthermore, information is limited on the biostimulant potential of some brown seaweed species like Ecklonia maxima. This study evaluated the impact of two commercial extracts (derived from Ascophyllum nodosum and Ecklonia maxima) on Vitis vinifera cv.

Pyropia yezoensis, an economically valuable macroalga, occupies a pivotal position in evolutionary history as a red alga, making it an ideal model organism for investigating the evolution of photosynthesis. However, efficient genetic manipulation in P. yezoensis, particularly the stable expression of exogenous genes, presents substantial challenges.
