ABSTRACT:
A somaclonal variant of Gracilaria verrucosa, labeled G-16S, capable of asexual reproduction, has been created which, compared to its parental strain G-16, is less epiphytized, is appreciably less pigmented, and produces agar with substantially enhanced gel strength. This superior algal strain may be used to reduce the relative cost of seaweed cultivation and to produce improved quality agar.
