| algae, green | Algae of the division chlorophyta, in which the green pigment of chlorophyll is not masked by other pigments. Classes include charophyceae, bryopsidophyceae, conjugatophyceae, oedogoniophyceae, chlorophyceae, and prasinophyceae. Common genera are acetabularia, chlamydomonas, chlorella, nitella, prototheca, scenedesmus, spirogyra, and volvox. (12 Dec 1998) |

| blue-green algae | The former name for the blue-green bacteria, now classified as Cyanobacteria. A group of prokaryotes. Synonym: Cyanobacteria. (05 May 2002) |
| blue-green bacteria | <organism> Modern term for the blue green algae, prokaryotic cells that use chlorophyll on intracytoplasmic membranes for photosynthesis. The blue green colour is due to the presence of phycobiliproteins. Found as single cells, colonies or simple filaments. In Anabaena, in which the cells are arranged as a filament, heterocysts capable of nitrogen fixation occur at regular intervals. According to the endosymbiont theory Cyanobacteria are the progenitors of chloroplasts. (18 Nov 1997) |
