Molecular sequencing has helped resolve the phylogenetic relationships amongst the
diverse groups of algal, fungal-like and protist organisms that constitute the Chromalveolate …

Like any other living organisms, algae are plagued by diseases caused by fungi, protists,
bacteria or viruses. As aquaculture continues to rise worldwide, pathogens of nori or biofuel …

Parasites are now known to be ubiquitous across biological systems and can play an
important role in modulating algal populations. However, there is a lack of extensive …

Multicellular eukaryotes are characterized by an expanded extracellular matrix (ECM) with a
diversified composition. The ECM is involved in determining tissue texture, screening cells …

In the marine environment, seaweeds (ie marine macroalgae) provide a wide range of
ecological services and economic benefits. Like land plants, seaweeds do not provide these …

This is an account of the molecular systematics and phylogeny of the osmotrophic
stramenopile lineages traditionally studied by mycologists, which include the …

Seaweeds are macroscopic forms of phylogenetically diverse assemblage of marine algae
that grow in oceans, thriving among profoundly harsh environmental conditions. They are …

Marine fungi have been widely studied over the past millennium and considerable progress
has been made in documenting their phylogeny, biodiversity, ultrastructure, ecology …

Viruses, bacteria, and eukaryotic symbionts interact with algae in a variety of ways to cause
disease complexes, often sha** marine and freshwater ecosystems. The advent of …

Fungi, nematodes and oomycetes belong to the most prominent eukaryotic plant pathogenic
organisms. Unicellular organisms from other eukaryotic lineages, commonly addressed as …
