Algal polysaccharides as source of plant resistance inducers (2014, background): “Before its introduction, there were attempts to Hypnea musciformis (Wulfen) Lamouroux cultivation, a naturally found species in the Brazilian coast, with little success (Hayashi et al, 2007).”
The commercial red seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii—an overview on farming and environment (2011, background): “Additionally, efforts include cultivar enhancement programs utilizing molecular techniques to: increase productivity, resist disease, herbivory, and epiphytism (Cheney et al. 1997, 1998; de Paula et al. 2001; Lombardi et al. 2001, 2006; Yarish et al. 2001 ;W u et al. 2003; Msuya and Salum 2006; Zucc”
Seasonal changes in growth rate, carrageenan yield and lectin content in the red alga Kappaphycus alvarezii cultivated in Camranh Bay, Vietnam (2009, unknown): “Although we found small differences between harvested intervals, our results disagree with those reported by Hayashi et al. (2007), who found significant differences in 3,6-AG content between the brown, red and green morphotypes cultured in Sao Paulo State, Brazil.”
