Abstract This study provides new species records (NRs) of macroalgal assemblages present in rocky habitats from the South Shetland Islands (SSI) and north-eastern Antarctic Peninsula (EAP), Weddell Sea. Surveys were conducted during summers 2013/2014 to 2017/2018 at Elephant, Deception, Half Moon Vega islands. Data those available literature western (WAP) combined provide an updated checklist, giving insights into macroecology potential changes thermohaline circulation patterns. A total 48...
Oceanic islands are natural laboratories for investigating species diversity and richness patterns. Changes in abiotic parameters may induce shifts marine biota. Seaweeds recognized as bioindicators, though those from remote tropical have been rarely studied. This study updates the diversity, distribution of macroalgae Trindade, a Brazilian volcanic island located 1140 km off coast. Biotic data, obtained global database situ compiled new records list, were associated with parameters....
Despite therapeutic advances in recent decades, colorectal cancer is still the third most frequent neoplasm worldwide, with significant morbidity and mortality young middle-aged adults. Therefore, advance treatment options for patients who are afflicted tumor subtypes without effective therapies needed. Antarctica macroalgae substances-producing organisms important biological activities, which antitumor properties investigated, showing promising cytotoxic results. There no reports so far...
