Aquaculture of Pyropia yezoensis is extending from shallow seawater to deep seawater in China where full-floating culture protocol is applicable. The current P. yezoensis cultivars come from intertidal parents and have been long subject to periodical drying (PD) culture protocols. To investigate whe...
