Studies on photosynthesis and respiration in some marine macroalgae of the Goa coast
(Goa: National Institute of Oceanography, 1985)
Primary production and respiration rates were measured in 14 marine macroalgal species from the Goa coast. The highest production rate was observed in Hypnea musciformis and the lowest in Laurencia papillosa. Net production ...
Chemical Constituents of the Red Alga Acanthophora Spicifera
(Walter de Gruyter, Berlin, 1986)
Analysis of the petroleum-wither and chloroform extracts of the marine red alga @iAcanthophora spicifera@@ led to the isolation of a sterol, cholesterol, fatty acids, stearic, palmitic, behenic (C@d22@@) and arachidic acids ...
Occurrence of Porphyra Vietnamensis (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) along the Goa Coast
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)
The occurrence of a red alga, Porphyra vietnamensis has been studied along the Goa Coast (west coast of India). The growth period was observed during the monsoon (July-October) and optimum growth was recorded during August, ...
Seasonal Variation in Heavy Metal Concentration in Mangrove Foliage
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)
Seasonal variation in the concentration of some heavy metals in the leaves of seven species of mangrove vegetation from Goa, revealed that maximum concentration of iron and manganese occurs during the monsoon season without ...
Seasonal Variations in Biochemical Composition of some Seaweeds from Goa Coast
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)
Carbohydrate content in Chaetomorpha media, Dictyota dumosa, Ulva fasciata, Padina tetrastromatica, Hypnea musciformis and Gracilaria corticata was almost similar. Caloric content (5218 cal/g dry wt), organic carbon (29.17%) ...
Further studies in using mangrove foliage as a prawn feed
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)
Changes in biochemical composition and energy content of foliage of eight mangrove species at various phases of life and during decay were studied. Decomposition resulted in loss of organic contents, carbon and C:N ratio ...
