Chlorococcaceae
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Automated taxobox".
Chlorococcaceae is a family of green algae, in the order Chlamydomonadales.[1] They are mostly soil-dwelling algae.[2] Many members of this group produce lipids and secondary carotenoids.[2]
The Chlorococcaceae consists mostly of coccoid (single, nonmotile) cells with one parietal or central chloroplast and one or multiple nuclei. The chloroplast contains a single pyrenoid surrounded by a starch envelope. The cell envelope may thicken with age and develop into a mucilaginous stalk in some species.[2] Reproduction consists of zoospores with a cell wall; after they stop swimming, the zoospores retain their shape.[2]
The family Chlorococcaceae is currently under taxonomic revision. As currently circumscribed, the type genus Chlorococcum is polyphyletic.[2] The type species, Chlorococcum infusionum, is a member of the clade Moewusinia.[3]
