The 20 pages that link to Red algae, each with the reason it gives.

• ArchaeplastidaBroader topic: Red algae are a major Archaeplastida branch with distinctive pigments and plastid features.

• Secondary endosymbiosisRelated: Red algae were engulfed in several independent origins of complex plastids.

• Green algaeCompared with: Red algae share ancient plastid ancestry with green algae but differ in pigments and other traits.

• Primary endosymbiosisBroader topic: Red algae represent one major branch carrying primary plastids.

• AgarNarrower topic: Agar is extracted from the cell walls of several red-algal groups.

• Brown algaeCompared with: Red algae differ in pigments, storage products, and evolutionary history.

• StramenopileRelated: Red algae are the inferred endosymbiotic source of plastids in many stramenopiles.

• AlgaeBroader topic: Red algae are a deeply branching algal lineage with distinctive pigments and ecology.

• CarrageenanNarrower topic: Carrageenan is extracted from the cell walls of particular red algae.

• KelpCompared with: Red algae are a separate algal lineage, not brown algae like kelp.

• NoriNarrower topic: Nori-producing species belong to this broader algal group.

• AlveolataRelated: Red-algal ancestry is implicated in plastid origins across parts of Alveolata.

• ChromalveolataRelated: A red alga is proposed to have supplied the plastid shared by chromalveolate ancestors.

• SeaweedBroader topic: Red algae form one of seaweed’s three major groups and include edible nori.

• Dimethyl sulfideRelated: Some red algae produce dimethylsulfoniopropionate, a precursor to dimethyl sulfide.

• GlaucophyteCompared with: Red algae share ancient primary plastid ancestry with glaucophytes but lack their plastid peptidoglycan wall.

• Edible seaweedNarrower topic: Nori and dulse belong to this broad algal group.

• MesoproterozoicNarrower topic: The proposed affinity of Bangiomorpha links Mesoproterozoic fossils to modern algal lineages.

• PorphyraNarrower topic: Porphyra belongs to this diverse algal lineage, whose pigments color its blades.

• CryptomonadRelated: Cryptomonad plastids trace their ancestry to a red-algal endosymbiont.
