Abstract: Abstract The antioxidant potential of the ethanolic precipitate (EP) of the marine green alga Ulva rigida was evaluated via its scavenging ability on 1, 1-dipheny-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and cytoprotection against H2O2-induced damage in yeast cells and… read more here.

Abstract: Marine algae perform approximately half of global carbon fixation, but their growth is often limited by the availability of phosphate or other nutrients1,2. As oceans warm, the area of phosphate-limited surface waters is predicted to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2024.0489
Abstract: In eukaryotes, gamete size difference between the two sexes (anisogamy) evolved from gametes of equal size in both mating types (isogamy). The gamete dynamics (GD) model for anisogamy evolution combines gamete limitation and competition and… read more here.
