Farmed kelp gametophytes were previously observed to be living endophytically in filamentous red algae. The interactions of two farmed kelp species and six red algae were examined in laboratory culture. Undaria pinnatifida (Harvey) Suringar and Laminaria religiosa Miyabe demonstrated the differing abilities of zoospores to become endophytic in four host red algae and neither kelp became endophytic in two non-filamentous red algae. There was a strong seasonal component regarding infectiousness that is associated with the changes in fron erosion in U. pinnatifida from April to June. At the same time, L. religiosa showed no significant changes in frond erosion, and there were no apparent changes in infection levels in the two species they were able infect. This study indicated clear differences between two keip species with regard to their symbiotic relationship to red algae in terms of host specificity and preference of kelp gametophytes.

Similar to other species of Gigartinaceae Chondrus crispus has an alternation of perennial, isomorphic gametophytic and sporophytic generations. As these two generations co-exist independently within populations and obtain their resources in a similar manner, intraspecific competition is expected. In populations within the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence, fronds of both generations of C. crispus occur in similar numbers. This equivalency can be related to substratum instability, where the population is dynamic with a high turn-over rate of genets. These observations support a stochastic hypothesis to account for distribution of gametophytes and sporophytes in this area. Along the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, where the substratum is stable, gametophytes are overwhelmingly predominant. Gametophytic predominance is greatest in the lower littoral zone where C. crispus is abundant and space is limited. Under the fucoid canopy where "free-space" exists, the gametophyte to sporophyte ratio is lower. Gametophytic and sporophytic fronds are distributed equally among different size-classes and size-distribution is not considered a competitive factor. Previous studies have shown that sporophytic fronds of C. crispus are more susceptible to infections by endophytic algae and other pathogens, and are more heavily grazed by herbivores than are gametophytic fronds. Thus, mechanistic factors are strongly implied in the selection of gametophytes in the Atlantic population.

동해안의 3개 정점(삼척, 영덕, 포항)과 서해안의 2개 정점(학암포, 만리포)에서 여름철(7, 8월)에 진두발을 채집하여 생장, 성숙, 배우체와 사분포자체 비율 및 질병에 대한 연구를 실시하였다. 진두발의 체장은 개체군별로 평균 6.10~9.69 cm였으며 만리포에서 최소였고 포항에서 최대로서 동해안 개체가 서해안 개체에 비해 큰 것으로 확인되었다. 개체가 서해안 진두발에 비해 큰 것을 확인하였다. 진두발 개체군의 영양체 비율은 26.7~66.7 %였으며, 영양체를 resorcinol 방법으로 구분한 후 배우체:사분포자체 비율은 동해안에서 1.7:1로 배우체가 우점하였고 서해안에서는 학암포에서 1:1.1, 만리포에서 1:2.3로서 포자체가 번무하였다. 본 연구에서 한국산 진두발은 다양한 질병(백색증과 녹반증 등), 내생조류와 착생조류를 가지고 있었으며, 여름철의 진두발은 건강한 조체는 20~40 %로서 많은 개체가 질병을 가지고 있었다. 진두발은 현재까지 동정되지 않은 사상형 녹조류인 내생하는 Ulvella sp.를 가지고 있었다. 이러한 내생조류는 유럽과 캐나다의 주름진두발에서 관찰되는 감염성 병원체로서 보다 많은 관심과 연구가 요구된다.
