Abstract
Molecular genetic tools are widely used to learn more about the identical characterization of obscure microalgal strains. At the Korea Marine Microalgae Culture Center (KMMCC), the authors deduced the genetic relationship of 41 strains of the genus Tetraselmis by analysing a small subunit ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) sequences. Forty-one strains were seperated into five groups, which showed over a 98-99% similarity to Tetraselmis striata or Tetraselmis sp. Tsbre. Also, 13 strains among them had an identical genotype to Tetraselmis striata while 5 strains had with Tetraselmis sp. Tsbre, respectively. The mean size of each strain generally showed the tendency of different variation according to the groups.
