Since 2007, Ulva prolifera, a green macroalgal species that blooms periodically in the Yellow Sea of China, has caused the world’s biggest green tide, which induced harmful ecological impacts and economic losses. When the alga is subject to prolonged exposure to air, it suffers abiotic stresses. To...
