Differentiation of haploid and diploid fertilities in Gracilaria chilensis affect ploidy ratio
Abstract Background Algal isomorphic biphasic life cycles alternate between free-living diploid (tetrasporophytes) and haploid (dioicious gametophytes) phases and the hypotheses explaining their maintenance are still debated. Classic models state that conditional differentiation between phases is re...
