title: Features of the reproductive biology of representativesof the genus Haslea Simonsen (Bacillariophyta),allowing the use of classical breeding methods
abstract: The application of the classical selection of diatoms on the example of the genus Haslea is considered. The ability of some representatives of this genus to synthesize marennine and marennine-like pigments is interesting to researchers and owners of oyster farms because these unique pigments can colorise the tissues of mollusks in a greenish color and improve their organoleptic properties. It has been shown that marennine has antibacterial, antiviral, antioxidant and other biological activities.
