Abstract:
Chondrus Stackhouse is a perennial red seaweed with alternate phases of gametophyte and tetrasporophyte; over-harvesting and environmental pollution have hugely reduced the population resource and resulted in shortage of a constant and reliable supply. For this genus the classification and systematics are puzzled for variable forms, habitats and phenotypic plasticity. Meanwhile, as a representative family in Rhodophyta, Gigartinaceae are one of the important taxa for understanding the origin and evolution o...
