Marine algal assemblages on the artificial reefs at three stations (Haengwon, Geumneung, Pyoseon in Jeju-do) and the growth pattern of Ecklonia cava with water depth were studied before and after rocky cleaning. Nine algal species occurred at three artificial reefs before rocky cleaning in July 2012, however, 19 algal species were found at three artificial reefs after rocky cleaning in July 2013. In particular, 13 of 19 species in 2013 were replaced by different species which were not found in July 2012. Algal biomass rapidly increased in July 2013 after rocky cleaning. The nMDS plot based on the presence and absence data of macro-algal assemblages on the artificial reefs showed that the species compositions between artificial reefs were similar to each other before rocky cleaning operations in July of 2012. However, after rocky cleaning, the species composition of macro-algal assemblages in Haengwon region was similar to that in Pyoseon region while that in Geumneung region was different to those in Haengwon and Pyseon regions in July 2013. It is needed to clarify the suitable water depth for transplantation of perennial Phaeophyta E. cava. According to the data on seasonal changes in total length, total weight, blade length, blade width, blade weight of E. cava, it began to grow rapidly from April and reached to the maximum value in June, and then degeneration of the blade occurred in July and continued to early August. Although the total length of E. cava at 10m water depth was larger than those at 5 m and 15 m water depths, there was no significant difference statistically among water depths by ANOVA test. However, in the values of total weight, blade length, blade width, and blade weight, the growth patterns at 5 m water depth were larger than those at 10 m and 15 m. Thus, it is assumed that the most suitable water depth for transplantation and its maximum growth and effective release of zoospores of E. cava will be 7~10 m water depth.

The Purpose of this study is to develope the method for early recovery of the biodiversity in the oligotrophical costal area, it is important in the recovery of the biodiversity to make kelp forest grow in the concerned area. In order for it, sufficient nutrient is required as well as the proper seedbed, Hence in this study, granulated fertilizer, which contains nutrient, such as nitrogen, phosphorus and etc, is coated by cement paste, and then is mixed in to the porous concrete in order to provide seedbed and nutrient simultaneously. As a result of examination of growth property of marine plants of multiple performance concrete for kelp forest regeneration, seaweeds is adhered plentifully when the number of days is longer. when the granular fertilizer mixed. adherence and growth of marine plants is excellent and is stabilized over the long run. In case 6 month of the number of days immersed, marine plants and growth will appear.

Dietary proteins are the most important factors affecting growth performance of fish and feed cost. Generally, most of the formulated diets for marine fish include a large amount of fish meal as a protein source because of its high nutritive value and palatability. Quality of fish meal in diet may affect on growth and feed efficiency of fish. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of various fish meals as dietary protein source on growth and feed utilization of the juvenile flounder. (omitted)

Apical and subapical fragments of Gracilaria verrucosa (Hudson) Papenfuss (Rhodophyta) were cultured on a temperature-light gradient table with four temperature $(15,\;20,\;25\;and\;30^{\circ}C)$ and five light intensity $(20,\;40,\;60,\;80\; and\;100{\mu}mol\;photons\;m^{-2}s^{-l})$ regimes to examine growth responses. Their growth was measured weekly. Plant weight and lateral branch formation were affected by temperature and light intensity. As compared with other reports, relative growth rate (RGR) in both fragments was more or less high with 6.27 to $11.95\%$ $day^{-1}$. It was lowest at $15^{\circ}C$ with $20\mu mol$ photons $m^{-2}s^{-l}$, whereas, the highest value was recorded at $25^{\circ}C$ with $100\mu mol$ photons $m^{-2}s^{-l}$ During the experimental period, the growth pattern in G. verrucosa was significantly different between apical and subapical fragments, even though RGR based on weight was similar. Growth in apical fragments depended on elongation by apical growth. By contrast, subapical fragments mainly increased their weights by proliferation of lateral branch. This suggests that intercalary activity (e.g. lateral branch formation) is also an important means for growth of the thallus in Korean G. verrucosa. In conclusion, the relatively high growth potential with the intercalary activity in G. verrucosa will be helpful for mariculture in Korea.

Most of microalgae shift their metabolic pathways toward the fatty acid biosynthesis following nitrogen deprivation. Recent studies on Nannochloropsis species, oleaginous microalgae, have been performed to investigate the regulation of contents and compositions of fatty acids under stressful condition. The objective of this experiment is to identify the effect of nitrogen on cell growth and fatty acids production in Nannochloropsis oculata K-1281 and compare fatty acid composition response to nitrogen deficiency between N. oculata LB2164 and K-1281. The fatty acids content in N. oculata K-1281 was increased up to 210%, while the growth rate was decreased under nitrogen deficient condition. The contents of C16:0 and C16:1 increased dramatically in both N. oculata K-1281 and LB2164, while the contents of C20:4 and C20:5 increased in N. oculata LB2164. The fatty acids content and composition in N. oculata K-1281 returned following addition of nitrogen after nitrogen starvation. These results demonstrated that fatty acid contents and compositions under nitrogen deficiency will provide the understanding of fatty acid synthesis in microalgae.

Marine microalgae are used extensively in mariculture as food for marine animals, in particular larval and juvenile molluscs, crustaceans and fish. A wide range of microalgae has been tested, because not all species are equally successful in supporting growth of a particular animal. In addition, bioactivities of marine microalgae are recently investigated for the effective exploitation of unutilized marine resources. (omitted)
