The green lineage (Viridiplantae) comprises the green algae and their descendants the land
plants, and is one of the major groups of oxygenic photosynthetic eukaryotes. Current …

Green microalgae, and Chlorophyta in particular, are considered as a renewable source of
valuable chemicals for biofuel, nutraceutical or pharmaceutical industries, among others …

The role of macroalgae in Blue Carbon assessments has been controversial, partially due to
uncertainties about the fate of exported macroalgae. Available evidence suggests that …

The multicellular green alga Volvox carteri and its morphologically diverse close relatives
(the volvocine algae) are well suited for the investigation of the evolution of multicellularity …

The morphological diversity of animals, fungi, plants, and other multicellular organisms
stems from the fact that each lineage acquired multicellularity independently. A prerequisite …
