  • Common Seaweed Flora of Coral Reefs in Hainan Island
    Coral Reef Marine Plants of Hainan Island, 2020
    Co-Authors: E A Titlyanov, T V Titlyanova, Xiubao Li, Hui Huang
    Abstract:

    This chapter on the common seaweed Flora of Hainan Island contains species composition of the Marine benthic Flora, the complete list of Marine plants found by researchers from all studies carried out, historical changes in the Flora, and seasonal changes. During the period of the studies of the Marine Flora in Hainan Island from 1933 to 2015, a total of 526 taxa were collected, including Rhodophyta 305 taxa (or 58% of all species), Phaeophyceae 95 taxa (or 18%), and Chlorophyta 126 taxa (or 24%).

  • inventory change 1990s 2010s in the Marine Flora of sanya bay hainan island china
    Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2015
    Co-Authors: E A Titlyanov, T V Titlyanova, Oksana S Belous, T L Kalita
    Abstract:

    Sanya Bay lies at the southern part of Hainan Island, 18°15′N 109°28′E. The seawater in the bay has been catastrophically polluted during the past two decades with urban sewage from the rapidly developing Sanya City. The Marine Flora research in Sanya Bay was started at the beginning of the 1930s and the most detailed studies were performed by two German-Chinese expeditions in 1990 (October–December) and in 1992 (March–April). In April, October, November and December 2008–2010 the Marine Flora of Sanya Bay was studied by the authors at three localities: Luhuitou Peninsula, Xiaodong Hai and Dadong Hai. Marine algae were sampled in the intertidal and upper subtidal zones (to 4–5 m depth). The list of species (including varieties and forms) of the Marine algae for Sanya Bay sampled during the period from 2008 to 2010 is compared with those collected at the same localities in 1990/1992. Comparative analysis of the floristic composition of the Marine red, brown and green algae (found during different time periods) revealed that considerable changes have taken place between 1990/1992 and 2008–2010 at Sanya Bay. There was an increase in filamentous, tubular and fine blade-like green and red algae (mainly epiphytes with a high surface to volume ratio) and a displacement of upright-growing fleshy, foliose and other large green, brown and red algae with a low surface to volume ratio. It is assumed that the changes reflect mainly increased pollution by urban sewage and mariculture pond wastes and probably by coral bleaching events of 1998.

  • bioactive natural products from chinese Marine Flora and fauna
    Acta Pharmacologica Sinica, 2012
    Co-Authors: Zhenfang Zhou
    Abstract:

    In recent decades, the pharmaceutical application potential of Marine natural products has attracted much interest from both natural product chemists and pharmacologists. Our group has long been engaged in the search for bioactive natural products from Chinese Marine Flora (such as mangroves and algae) and fauna (including sponges, soft corals, and mollusks), resulting in the isolation and characterization of numerous novel secondary metabolites spanning a wide range of structural classes and various biosynthetic origins. Of particular interest is the fact that many of these compounds show promising biological activities, including cytotoxic, antibacterial, and enzyme inhibitory effects. By describing representative studies, this review presents a comprehensive summary regarding the achievements and progress made by our group in the past decade. Several interesting examples are discussed in detail.

  • investigations of the Marine Flora and fauna of the islands of palau
    Natural Product Reports, 2004
    Co-Authors: John D Faulkner, David J Newman, Gordon M Cragg
    Abstract:

    Covering: 1970s to July 2003 The Islands of Palau have proven to be an excellent source of bioactive Marine natural products primarily as a result of the systematic studies from the late 1970s by the research groups of Scheuer at the University of Hawaii, Faulkner at the Scripps Oceanographic Institution/University of California at San Diego, and Paul at the University of Guam. Their efforts were materially aided by the excellent facilities provided by the Government of Palau and for the last 10 years, those of the NCI's shallow water collection contractor, the Coral Reef Research Foundation. This review covers the structures and biological activities where noted, of the multitudinous Marine-derived natural products isolated from the Marine Flora and fauna of this nation and demonstrates the enormous variety of novel structures elaborated by these organisms.
