Over the past two decades, molecular phylogenetic data have allowed evaluations of hypotheses on the evolution of green algae based on vegetative morphological and …
Screening of native microalgal species for different biotechnological applications is a key step to achieve a strong algal database with successful commercial applications. In the …
Bayesian phylogenetic analyses are now very popular in systematics and molecular evolution because they allow the use of much more realistic models than currently possible …

Traditionally the green algae were classified in orders or classes according to the morphological species concept. For example, monadoid species (flagellates) were …
Duckweeds are the fastest growing angiosperms and have the potential to become a new generation of sustainable crops. Although a seed plant, Spirodela polyrhiza clones rarely …
Recent molecular data suggest that desert green algae have evolved from freshwater ancestors at least 14 times in three major classes (Chlorophyceae, Trebouxiophyceae and …
