Revision of Corallinaceae (Corallinales, Rhodophyta): recognizing Dawsoniolithon gen. nov., Parvicellularium gen. nov. and Chamberlainoideae subfam. nov. containing Chamberlainium gen. nov. and Pneophyllum.

abstract：:Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) plays critical roles in eukaryotic DNA replication and replication-associated processes. It is typically encoded by one or two gene copies (pcna) in eukaryotic genomes. Recently reported higher copy numbers of pcna in some dinoflagellates raised a question of how this gene has...
