• Asexual reproduction in Most brown algae is by bioflagellated zoospores. 

• Porioform ( Pear - Shaped ) 

• Ectocarpus , Dictyota , Laminaria, Saragassum & Fuccus.

                        RHODOPHYCAE  

• The members of rhodophycae are commonly called red Algae. 

• because of predominace of the red pigment, r – phycoerythrin in the body. 

• Floridean starch which is very similar to amyloprctin and glycogen in structures.

• The reproduce asexually by non-motile spores. And sexually by non – motile.
