  3. Klamath Lake AFA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klamath_Lake_AFA

    The classification of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae has undergone significant taxonomic revision in light of recent genetic studies. Genome sequencing has revealed substantial genetic variability, leading to the identification of distinct strains found around the world, such as strains like AFA FACHB-1287 [8], AFA FACHB-1265 [9], AFA NRERC-008 [10], isolates like AFA KM1D3_PB, [11] AFA UKL13-PB ...

  4. Green algae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_algae

    Green algae are also found symbiotically in the ciliate Paramecium, and in Hydra viridissima and in flatworms. Some species of green algae, particularly of genera Trebouxia of the class Trebouxiophyceae and Trentepohlia (class Ulvophyceae), can be found in symbiotic associations with fungi to form lichens. In general the fungal species that ...

  5. Turbinaria (alga) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbinaria_(alga)

    Turbinaria J.V. Lamouroux is a genus under family Sargassaceae, order Fucales, of the class Phaeophyceae (brown algae). Taxonomic classification is based on morphological characteristics including the shape of the leaves, vesicles, and receptacles, as well as the development of the axes. [4]

  6. Brown algae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_algae

    The fertilization of egg cells varies between species of brown algae, and may be isogamous, oogamous, or anisogamous. Fertilization may take place in the water with eggs and motile sperm, or within the oogonium itself. Certain species of brown algae can also perform asexual reproduction through the production of motile diploid zoospores.

  7. Taxonomic rank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomic_rank

    There are seven main taxonomic ranks: kingdom, phylum or division, class, order, family, genus, and species. In addition, domain (proposed by Carl Woese ) is now widely used as a fundamental rank, although it is not mentioned in any of the nomenclature codes, and is a synonym for dominion ( Latin : dominium ), introduced by Moore in 1974.

  8. Red algae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_algae

    Over 7,000 species are currently described for the red algae, [5] but the taxonomy is in constant flux with new species described each year. [40] [41] The vast majority of these are marine with about 200 that live only in fresh water. Some examples of species and genera of red algae are: Cyanidioschyzon merolae, a primitive red alga ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zygnematophyceae

    Zygnematophyceae (or Conjugatophyceae) is a class of green algae in the paraphylum streptophyte algae, also referred to as Charophyta, [2] consisting of more than 4000 described species. [3] The Zygnematophyceae are the sister clade of the Embryophyta (land plants). [4] [5] [6]
