The commercial red seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii—an overview on farming and environment (2011, methodology): “Genetic variation and taxonomic relations of commercial, wild, and herbar- ium samples were determined utilizing a variety of molecular tools (Giuseppe et al. 2006).”
Phyconomy: the extensive cultivation of seaweeds, their sustainability and economic value, with particular reference to important lessons to be learned and transferred from the practice of eucheumatoid farming (2019, background): “The susceptibility of farmed eucheumatoids to disease and pest infestations might be due to their low genetic diversity, as claimed by Halling et al. (2013) and Zuccarello et al. (2006).”
A molecular method for identification of the morphologically plastic invasive algal genera Eucheuma and Kappaphycus (Rhodophyta, Gigartinales) in Hawaii (2009, methodology): “Understanding the distributional spread of the three eucheumoid species in Hawaii is complicated by their morphological plasticity and paucity of diagnostic morphological characters for identification (Lluisma and Ragan 1995; Conklin and Smith 2005; Zuccarello et al. 2006).”
