Photomovement of Dunaliella Teod.

In a broad context, the term photomovement encompasses any movement or its alteration induced by light. Photomovement is the result of the photoregulation of movement – which includes an entire complex of elementary processes caused by a light stimulus su

In Memory ofProfessor Nadiya Massjuk 1931-2009 One of the authors of this monograph, Professor Nadiya Massjuk, Dr. Sci. BioI. and Leading Researcher of M. Kholodny Institute of Botany of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, passed away on 13 March, 2009. Her scientific interests were related to algology, particularly biodiversity, flora, systematics, ecology, geography, origin, evolution, phylogeny, the role of algae in the world of living organisms, and applied algo10gy. She was interested in the biology of algal photomovement from the point of view of diversity, phylogeny of phytoflagellates, classification, biotechnology of cultivation of carotene-containing algae, and carotenoid production. Dr. Massjuk was an author of the classic monograph "Morphology, Systematic, Ecology, Geographical Distribution of Genus Dunalie//a Teod and Perspectives of its Practical Applications" (Kiev, Naukova dumka, 1973) in which the results provide essential basic information on the genus Dunalie//a, the main principles of systematics of the genus and elucidation of its species, subspecies, versions and forms. Dr. Massjuk's published work (over 260 books and articles) and her impact on her friends and collegues has left an invaluable and lasting legacy to the scientific community. May she rest in peace.

Preface This monograph represents 30 years of scientific cooperation on the study of the basic biology of photomovement in algae between the National University of Life and Environmental Sciences of Ukraine (Prof. Yuriy Posudin) and the M.G. Kholodny Institute of Botany of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (prof. Nadiya Massjuk and Dr. Galyna Lilitskaya). It reviews the historical development
