Population ecology of the invasive kelp Undaria pinnatifida in California: environmental and biological controls on demography
We combined field monitoring and laboratory experiments to examine the population ecology of both the microscopic and macroscopic stages of a new invasion of Undaria pinnatifida in California. Over the course of 1 yr, we observed 2 distinct recruitment pulses of individuals in the Santa Barbara harbor; the appearance of these pulses was strongly correlated with a 4°C drop in ocean temperature a...
متن کاملUndaria pinnatifida (Wakame): A Seaweed with Pharmacological Properties
Background: The life-style-related diseases, like hypertension and obesity is a global tendency. To prevent these diseases, researchers’ attention is increasingly focusing on pharmacological properties of some natural plants such as Undaria pinnatifida (wakame), the most widely eaten brown seaweed. Phytochemical studies of this seaweed exhibited the existence of many biologically active compoun...
متن کاملIn situ ATR-IR spectroscopic and electron microscopic analyses of settlement secretions of Undaria pinnatifida kelp spores.
Knowledge about the settlement of marine organisms on substrates is important for the development of environmentally benign new methods for control of marine biofouling. The adhesion to substrates by spores of Undaria pinnatifida, a kelp species that is invasive to several countries, was studied by scanning electron and transmission electron microscopies (SEM/TEM) as well as by in situ attenuat...
متن کاملComplete Plastid Genome Sequence of the Brown Alga Undaria pinnatifida
In this study, we fully sequenced the circular plastid genome of a brown alga, Undaria pinnatifida. The genome is 130,383 base pairs (bp) in size; it contains a large single-copy (LSC, 76,598 bp) and a small single-copy region (SSC, 42,977 bp), separated by two inverted repeats (IRa and IRb: 5,404 bp). The genome contains 139 protein-coding, 28 tRNA, and 6 rRNA genes; none of these genes contai...
