Drs. Rose Ann Cattolico and Jeanine Olsen of the University             of Washington are employing state-of-the-art tools of molecular                 biology to sequence ribosomal genes of select green algae in                    order to construct a framework of evolutionary divergence for the               main lineages of Chlorophyta. DNA sequence analysis provides a                  powerful analytical tool in understanding the phylogenetic                      relationships among organisms; direct comparisons can be made                   between samples of genetic material and measurements obtained of                the amount of base-pair (mutational) change leading to present                  species. Little work of this kind has been done with algal                      groups, although algae are worldwide in distribution, important                 in ecological function, and significant in understanding the                    origins of land plants.                                                                 Dr. Cattolico has been a leader in molecular-biological                 studies of various groups of algae. Dr. Olsen, a recent Ph.D.,                  has training in both traditional and modern molecular approaches                to the study of algae. Together they make an ideal team for the                 study of algal phylogeny using new biochemical methods.
