Sea lettuce systematics: lumping or splitting?

2018-09-10

Abstract excerpt

Phylogenetic relationships within sea lettuce species belonging to the genus Ulva is a daunting challenge given the scarcity of diagnostic morphological features and the pervasive phenotypic plasticity. With more than 100 species described on a morphological basis, an accurate evaluation of its diversity is still missing. Here we analysed 277 chloroplast-encoded gene sequences (43 from this study), representing 3...
