The wondrously diverse eukaryotes that constitute the red algae have been the focus of
numerous recent molecular surveys and remain a rich source of undescribed and little …

The taxonomic significance of the polysaccharide structures of algal cell walls has been
underscored several times over the past few decades but has never been pursued …

The Florideophyceae is the most abundant and taxonomically diverse class of red algae
(Rhodophyta). However, many aspects of the systematics and divergence times of the group …

A phylogeny for the Rhodophyta has been inferred by parsimony analysis of plastid rbcL
sequences representing 81 species, 68 genera, 38 families, and 17 orders of red algae; …

A phylogeny of marine Rhodophyta has been inferred by a number of methods from
nucleotide sequences of nuclear genes encoding small subunit rRNA from 39 species in 15 …

Phosphatic sediments of the Late Neoproterozoic (ca. 600 million years old [Myr])
Doushantuo Formation at Weng'an, South China, contain fossils of multicellular algae …

Previous studies have indicated that resolution of supraordinal relationships in the red algal
class Florideophyceae will require additional characters, improved taxon sampling and …

The mode of division of vegetative cells, formation of spermatangial parent cells, initiation of
the carpogonial branch apparatus, and formation of tetrasporangial initials are homologous …

Phylonyms is an implementation of PhyloCode, which is a set of principles, rules, and
recommendations governing phylogenetic nomenclature. Nearly 300 clades-lineages of …

This review discusses the impact that molecular studies of the genic and spacer regions of
the ribosomal cistron have had on the systematics and classification of the florideophyte red …
