Both Ulva and Enteromorpha are very common, ubiquitous, and environmentally important genera of green seaweeds. The evolutionary history of Ulva species is poorly understood, stemming from a lack of diagnostic, non-molecular systematic characters. This study addresses the following questions: i) Do the two genera represent distinct entitiesj ii) What are the relationships among local putative species; iii) Do the recognized species represent monophyletic lineages; iv) How closely are local species related to those from elsewhere? These questions are addressed using nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS sequences from 48 local samples plus data on 16 samples from GenBank. 2014-08-13T14:03:37Z 2014-08-13T14:03:37Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6108 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
