• Why is Ulva intestinalis the only macroalga inhabiting isolated rockpools along the Swedish Atlantic coast (2004, background): “For the common green algae Ulva and Enteromorpha (today considered to be the same genus, i.e. Ulva, Hayden et al. 2003) the mechanisms involved include either the presence of an extracellularly acting carbonic anhydrase (e.g. Björk et al. 1992), the presence of a membrane-bound anion transporter…”
• Detecting massive green algae (Ulva prolifera) blooms in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea using Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) data (2012, background): “The green macroalgae Ulva prolifera (previously known as Enteromorpha prolifera (Hayden et al. 2003)) is generally constrained to coastal areas and offshore waters in the Yellow Sea (YS) and East China Sea (ECS) (Hu et al. 2010).”
• Biofiltering efficiency, uptake and assimilation rates of Ulva clathrata (Roth) J. Agardh (Clorophyceae) cultivated in shrimp aquaculture waste water (2009, background): “One of the most abundant estuarine seaweeds during this period is U. clathrata (Coutinho and Seeliger 1986) (previously Enteromorpha clathrata ;s ee Hayden et al.2003 for nomenclature review).”
• Growing Ulva (Chlorophyta) in integrated systems as a commercial crop for abalone feed in South Africa: a SWOT analysis (2009, background): “1997; Kandjengo 2002), but the genus Ulva (now including the former genus Enteromorpha; Hayden et al. 2003) is taxonomically very complicated.”
• Integrating filamentous 'green tide' algae into tropical pond-based aquaculture (2008, background): “(hereafter Ulva) (Ulvaceae) is part of a broad species complex with the genus Enteromorpha (Hayden et al., 2003) and has diffuse cell growth forming foliose and tubular green filaments, which are attached or free floating (Womersley, 1984).”
• Concise review of green algal genus Ulva Linnaeus (2020, background): “Similarly, phylogenetic studies using internal transcribed spacer of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS rDNA) and rbcL gene abolished the distinction between Ulva and Enteromorpha as two separate genera (Hayden et al. 2003; Shimada et al. 2003).”
