Red Algal Evolution

Red Algal Evolution is a theoretical framework within algal evolutionary biology that specifically elucidates the phylogenetic origins, diversification, and symbiotic contributions of red algae (Rhodophyta) through geological time, distinguished from other algal lineages by its focus on plastid ancestry, molecular systematics, and secondary endosymbiosis events.
