Reproduction in Bacillariophyta (With Diagram)

In this article we will discuss about the reproduction in basillariophyta. This will also help you to draw the structure and diagram of reproduction in bacillariophyta. Diatom cells multiply usually by a peculiar method of cell division. An increase in the volume of the frustule results in a slight separation of the valves which is followed by mitotic division of [...]

Phaeophyta: Features and Relationships | Algae

In this article we will discuss about the general features and phylogenetic relationships of phaeophyta.  General Features of Phaeophyta: The Phaeophyta or brown algae, in general, are restricted to the sea—the sea­weeds, with a few exceptional fresh-water forms (species of Heribaudiella, Sphacelaria, Lithoderma, Pseudobodanella and Pleurocladia lacustris, A. Br.). Usually the marine members are abundant in cold-waters. But warm-water brown [...]
