Porphyra haitanensis as protein source for ruminants.
The highest amounts were found in Ascophyllum,
Porphyra and Palmaria species and were above 70% (25).

Porphyra purpurea: cyanobacterial introns and shared ancestry of red and green algae.
Nutrient-rich shallow water provides excellent conditions for farming laver seaweed (nori,
Porphyra yezoensis), yielding 40% of the total annual production in Japan in recent decades (Sasaki, 2005a).
Some seaweeds species contain all the essential amino acids (monomeric units that form the protein structures) at levels close to that recommended, such as arginine (
Porphyra tenera, Rhodophyta) (MABEAU; FLEURENCE, 1993), methionine (Sargassum vulgare, Phaeophyta), aspartic and glutamic acids (Ulva spp., Chlorophyta) (MOHAMED et al., 2012).

In this study, antioxidant concentrations in kudzu were compared to those in spinach (Spinacia oleracea), the shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes), and nori seaweed (
Porphyra tenera).
