XVII.—Studies in the Ectocarpaceæ. I. The Life-History and Cytology of Pylaiella litoralis, Kjellm

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  06 July 2012

Extract

During the last few years attention has been focussed somewhat sharply upon the Marine Algæ, partly on account of the recently investigated life-histories of some of the larger Phæophyceæ, and partly because of a recent suggestion that the Marine Algæ may represent the stock from which all higher land-plants have originated. Interest has naturally centred on the problem of the origin of an alternation of generations among the seaweeds, comparable to that which has become a characteristic feature in the life-histories of higher terrestrial plants.
