Abstract
Grateloupia asiatica and G. divaricata are edibile marine red algae that commonly occur on the east coast of Korea: G. asiatica occurs in sheltered locations such as estuaries or tide pools, and G. divaricata usually grows at the depth of 2~5 meters under the sea where freshwater flows. We compared growth pattern of both species in Aninjin, Gyoam, Hosan, and Sacheon in order to find suitable location for mass culture of the Grateloupia species. In case of G. asiatica, vegetative and tetrasporangial thalli were found in Gyoam and Sacheon, while gametophytic thalli were found in Aninjin. Population from Aninjin was the largest on the average length of thalli (20.6 cm) among populations studied. Population of G. divaricata in Sacheon seems to be maintained mostly with sporophytes. However, Aninjin and Hosan populations consisted of gametophytes and sporophytes in summer. Population from Hosan was the largest on the average length of thalli (19.8 cm). Based on our results, G. asiatica and G. divaricata repeat a typical triphasic life history of red algae on the east coast of Korea.
