Metabolomic assessment of induced and activated chemical defence in the invasive red alga Gracilaria vermiculophylla.
In comparison with terrestrial plants the mechanistic knowledge of chemical defences is poor for marine macroalgae. This restricts our understanding in the chemically mediated interactions that take place between algae and other organisms. Technical advances such as metabolomics, however, enable new...
