Antioxidant content of M. stellatus and C. crispus: molar ratio of antioxidants (TE) to chlorophyll a (antioxidants (TE)/Chl a) of initial thallus branches collected on four sampling events (October 2011; March, May and August 2012). Bars are mean ± SEM (n = 5). Different letters (a and b) indicate significant differences among algal isolates within one of the four sampling events (significant interaction isolate × sampling event of 2-way ANOVA followed by a Fisher’s LSD test, p < 0.05). TE, Trolox equivalent; Mast-ex, Mastocarpus stellatus from higher levels of the lower intertidal; Mast-ov, Mastocarpus stellatus from overlapping zone in deeper levels of lower intertidal; Chon-ov, Chondrus crispus from overlapping zone in deeper levels of lower intertidal; SEM, standard error of the mean
