Molecular genetic identification of a new Tisochrysis lutea (Bendif et Probert, 2013) strain isolated from the Russian coastal waters of the Sea of Japan

Resumo

Clones of a marine haptophyte microalga Tisochrysis lutea (Bendif et Probert, 2013) from Atlantic and tropical Pacific waters are model objects for basic and applied research and are widely used in aquaculture, as well as the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries. The article reports species identification and determination of the phylogenetic position of the first and only Russian T. lutea clone isolated from the coastal waters of the northern Sea of Japan.
