Chara algae are ancient plant organisms that are commonly found in freshwater reservoirs and occur, though more rarely, in water bodies with salt water. An unusual feature of this type of algae is the ...

The genome of the algae species Chara braunii has been decoded. It already contains the first genetic characteristics that enabled the water plants' evolutionary transition to land. 500 million years ...

A new technique developed by researchers in Japan has clarified the location and dynamics of specific metabolites in a single cell of the alga Chara australis. The findings reveal that these ...
