Abstract
The haplodiplobion life cycle with sporic meiosis and isomorphic alternation
 of generations, the ability for vegetative reproduction, the rapid growth of
 thallus, a large amount of produced cells, and high specific production make
 Ulva rigida C. Ag. attractive for marine aquaculture. The paper is devoted to
 study biological features of Ulva growth and nutritional value under artificial
 conditions. It is shown how environmental factors affect the germination and
 formation of new plants. Preliminary data on nutritional value allow us to
 consider Ulva to low-calorie foods with a rich carbohydrate component. The
 mineral composition and a high concentration of iodine indicate the feasible
 usage of Ulva as a functional food ingredient.
