Studies were continued during 1977-78 on the growth
and yields in culture of the red seaweed Gracilaria
tikvahiae. Partial control of epiphytes was
achieved by nutrient removal, shading, and/or biological
agents. For the first time, a single clone
of the alga was grown continuously throughout the
year without replacement. Yields in large (2600
liter) aluminum tanks averaged 21.4 g dry wt/m².day,
equivalent to 31 tons/acre.year. Florida Atlantic University.
