  'KelpWatch' - Kelp Facts - What Are Kelps?
Members of the Laminariales are typically cold-water species, richly developed in the cold temperate and Arctic waters of the northern hemisphere, less so in the southern hemisphere and absent from the Antarctic.
Four families are recognised worldwide (Alariaceae, Chordaceae, Laminariaceae and Lessoniaceae), two of which occur on southern Australian coasts (Lessoniaceae and Alariaceae), where they are often conspicuous elements of the mid to upper sublittoral zones.
Kelp forests occur in cold, nutrient-rich waters and are among the most beautiful and biologically productive habitats in the marine environment.

 Plant Gene Register PGR95-029   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
If this were the case, a similar sequence would be expected in the calmodulins of other algae.
We investigated this possibility by cloning and sequencing the calmodulin cDNA of Macrocystis pyrifera (Lessoniaceae), a brown alga and distant relative of C.
Moreover, detailed knowlege of brown algal calmodulin is essential to further studies concerning the role of this protein in, for instance, the development of polarity in zygotes of the closely related Fucales.

This is structurally quite similar to the phloem found in vascular plants, but is likely a product of convergent evolution.
Kelps have no definite fossil record before the Miocene, and the trait has been found in only three genera of the single family Lessoniaceae.
Phaeophytes have a number of compounds which help them to retain water.
