  • Conference paper
Eleventh International Seaweed Symposium

Abstract

For the purpose of developing a useful seaweed resource, giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) was introduced from Mexico into China in August–September, 1978. Since then, a series of studies has been made, including investigations on experimental ecology and techniques for cultivation and propagation of this species in natural beds. The present paper is an integrative and brief introduction to our recent work.
