Abstract:Macroalgae host variety of symbionts on their surface which play critical role in their growth and development processes. Nevertheless, the complete understanding of this interaction of epiphytic bacteria and host algae is still in its infancy. This study comprehensively analyses epiphytic bacterial communities composition of red macroalga Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis and environmental factors such as nitrogen and phosphorus which shape the composition of epiphytic bacterial communities of G. lemaneiformis and… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
