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

This review discusses the main developments in the systematics of coccoid green algae
over the last three decades. The relationships of key groups of planktonic coccoid green …

For a predictive assessment of the aquatic toxicity of chemical mixtures, two competing
concepts are available: concentration addition and independent action. Concentration …

Herbicidal s-triazines are widespread contaminants of surface waters. They are highly toxic
to algae and other primary producers in aquatic systems. This results from their specific …

This paper describes the characteristics of microalgal strains that originated out of an
isolation and screening project included within the National Alliance for Advanced Biofuels …

Organisms belonging to the green algal genera Desmodesmus and Scenedesmus are
characterized by a high degree of flexibility allowing them to be true cosmopolitans and to …

Analyses of ITS‐2 ribosomal DNA from Scenedesmus and Scenedesmus‐like strains
showed that this molecule is well suited for resolving evolutionary relationships at various …

During anaerobic digestion, nutrients are mineralized and may require post-treatment for
optimum valorization. The cultivation of autotrophic microalgae using the digestate …

Grazer‐induced colony formation in the common green alga Scenedesmus acutus may be
interpreted as an anti‐grazer defense. Costs are to be expected because otherwise the …

A comparative study of the phylogeny of Scenedesmaceae based on rRNA gene sequences
(ITS1/5.8 S/ITS2), cell morphology and cell wall ultrastructure resulted in the acceptance of …
