Chlorophyceae can reproduce both asexually and sexually. In asexual reproduction, cells may produce autospores, aplanospores or zoospores. Autospores (by definition) lack flagella and appear as smaller versions of vegetative cells. Zoospores typically have an elongate, hydrodynamic shape and often have eyespots.
This list of genera in Chlorophyceae is sub-divided by order and family. Some genera have uncertain taxonomic placement and are listed as incertae sedis . The list is based on the data available in AlgaeBase , the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS) and other taxonomic databases.
Chaetopeltidales are an order of green algae in the class Chlorophyceae. [1] In comparison to other chlorophycean orders, the order is species-poor and was circumscribed relatively recently, in 1994; the key ultrastructural features include having zoospores with four flagella, with the basal bodies in a cruciate arrangement.
Chlorella is a genus of about thirteen species of single-celled or colonial green algae of the division Chlorophyta.The cells are spherical in shape, about 2 to 10 μm in diameter, and are without flagella.
Planktosphaeria is a genus of Chlorophyceae of the green algae. [1] It was first described by the phycologist Gilbert Morgan Smith in 1918, with Planktosphaeria gelatinosa as its type species. Species of Planktosphaeria are commonly found in freshwater plankton around the world. [2]
Chlamydocapsa is a genus of green algae, specifically of the Chlorophyceae. [1] [2] Chlamydocapsa consists of cells similar in structure to Chlamydomonas, although vegetative cells lack flagella and are therefore not motile. Cells are in colonies of two, four, eight, or more (rarely solitary) and are embedded in concentric layers of mucilage.
Chlamydomonadales, also known as Volvocales, are an order of flagellated or pseudociliated green algae, specifically of the Chlorophyceae. [1] Chlamydomonadales can form planar or spherical colonies. These vary from Gonium (four to 32 cells) up to Volvox (500 cells or more).
