Kappaphycus
''Kappaphycus'' is a genus of red algae. Species are distributed in the waters of East Africa, Indonesia, Malaysia, Hainan Island, the Philippines, and Micronesia.Guiry, M. D. In: Guiry, M. D. & G. M. Guiry. 2013''Kappaphycus''.AlgaeBase. National University of Ireland, Galway. Accessed 07 November 2013. Genus ''Kappaphycus'' is "morphologically plastic", with few visible characters that can be used to separate the taxa, so distinguishing the species can be difficult. In addition, many commercial varieties have been bred. Molecular analyses can be used. In general, these algae have fleshy thalli that grow erect from one or more anchors. The longest individuals can exceed a meter in length. All species produce kappa-carrageenan. Farming of this is a large business in the Philippines. Gavino Trono is a Filipino biologist dubbed the “Father of Kappaphycus farming”. ''Kappaphycus alvarezii'' is widely cultivated as a raw source of carrageenan, and other species are used, as well ...

Eucheuma Denticulatum
''Eucheuma denticulatum'' is a species of red algae and one of the primary sources of iota carrageenan. It exists naturally in the Philippines, tropical Asia, and the western Pacific, but for the commercial extraction of carrageenan it is usually cultivated. The species is commonly known as ''E. spinosum'' when cultivated and can be found in different colours: brown, green and red. Cultivation of ''Eucheuma'' started in the Philippines in the early 1970s and has since been introduced to many other locations with varying results. There are different methods of cultivating ''E. denticulatum''. One of the more common ones is the off-bottom "tie-tie"-method, with the setup being two stakes driven into the sediment with a rope between them. Pieces of the seaweed are then tied to the rope at regular intervals and allowed to grow for 6 weeks, after which it is harvested and dried. The species was originally described in 1768 as ''Fucus denticulatus'' by Nicolaas Laurens Burman Nicola ...

Eucheuma
''Eucheuma'', commonly known as gusô (), is a rhodophyte seaweed that may vary in color (red, brown, and green). ''Eucheuma'' species are used in the production of carrageenan, an ingredient for cosmetics, food processing, and industrial manufacturing, as well as a food source for people in the Philippines and parts of Indonesia and Malaysia. ''Eucheuma cottonii'' – cultivated in the Philippines – is the particular species known as gusô. Other species include ''Betaphycus gelatinae'', ''Eucheuma denticulatum'', and several species of the genus ''Kappaphycus'', including ''K. alvarezii''. Since the mid-1970s, ''Kappaphycus'' and ''Eucheuma'' have been a major source for the expansion of the carrageenan industry. Commercial seaweed farming of gusô (as well as ''Kappaphycus'') was pioneered in the Philippines. Though commercially significant, species of ''Eucheuma'' are difficult to identify without the aid of close scientific examination, as different species may have similar ...
