摘要

Abstract

Molecular investigations have raised concerns about the ecological risks of green tides caused by alien

Ulva

species in new habitats. The green tide-forming species

U. californica

Wille was generally considered to be native to North America

but new records have been widely reported in Europe

Asia

and Oceania in recent decades

indicating a strong dispersal capacity of the species. In this study

the first record of

U. californica

on the coastline of mainland China was reported

following a combined identification with multi-molecular markers and morphological characterization. It was shown that this species has a discontinuous distribution pattern along the coast of mainland China

with northern populations in the Yellow Sea and southern populations in the East China Sea and South China Sea. According to results of examination for life cycles and identification with mating type (MT) genetic markers

it was indicated that all

U. californica

samples were male gametophytes

and reproduced themselves through parthenogenesis solely. Combined with the fact that southern and northern populations are highly genetically identical

here we believed that

U. californica

was a recent alien species to mainland China with a rapid local spread. This finding provided evidences that the ability to reproduce in a variety of ways may play an important role in the spread of

Ulva

species

as well as essential basic data for marine risk management of green tides in China. In addition

according to the phylogeographic analysis

the possible geographical origin and global dispersal routes of

U. californica

were also proposed.
