摘要

Marine algae, popularly known as seaweeds, are sources of food, fodder, fertilizer, medicine and chemicals. World trade in seaweed and its products was valued at US 50 million dollar in 1970, US 250 million dollar in 1990 and US 6.2 billion dollar in 1999 (refs 1 and 2). About 20,000 marine algae species are distributed throughout the world, out of which only 221 species are utilized commercially. These include 145 species for food and 110 species for phycocolloid production. Porphyra (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) popularly known as 'Nod' in Japan, 'Kim' in Korea and 'Zicai' in China has an annual value of over US 1.8 billion dollar. Porphyra is primarily used as food, wrapped around the Japanese delicacy 'Sushi' which consists of roasted blades, raw fish, rice and other ingredients. The alga is not only delicious but also contains high levels of protein (25-50 percent), vitamins (higher vitamin C than in oranges), trace minerals and dietary fibres. The plant contains nearly 17 types of free amino acids, including taurine which controls blood cholesterol levels5. The alga is a preferred source of the red pigment #gamma#-phycoerythrin, which is utilized as a fluorescent 'tag' in the medical diagnostic industry. Porphyra has been cultivated for the past hundred years in Japan and today it is one of the largest aquaculture industries in Japan, Korea and China. Because of its economic importance and other health benefits, Porphyra cultivation is now being expanded to
