 note = {We isolated the conchocelis strain OHN-1 from a long linear blade growing in a natural population of bladed Bangiales in Ohara, Chiba Prefecture, the Boso Peninsula in Japan, which is affected by the warm Kuroshio Current.
The strain was identified as Neoporphyra kitoi based on the RUBISCO spacer sequences and phylogenetic analysis of the rbcL gene. Under identical laboratory cultures, the growth and pigment contents of the strain were compared with those of Neopyropia yezoensis f. narawaensis, which is the main cultivar currently cultivated in Japan.
The conchocelis maturity of OHN-1 was remarkably higher than that of strain HG-4 of Neopy. yezoensis f. narawaensis at higher temperatures of 25 and 30 °C among the 5 temperature conditions (10, 15, 20, 25, 30 °C). The growth of the gametophytic blade was significantly higher in OHN-1 than in HG-4 at each examined temperature (15, 20, 25 °C).
In particular, the OHN-1 blades at the highest temperature of 25 °C grew the largest until 3 weeks of culture, although the blades grew larger over 3 weeks with decreasing temperature.
Moreover, the photosynthetic pigment contents, especially the phycoerythrin content, were significantly higher in OHN-1 than in HG-4. 
These results demonstrate that Neoporphyra kitoi has potential as a candidate species for marine crops with high temperature tolerance despite faster blade maturity., 公開日: 2023-11-01, 19K06184},
