Kjellmaniella is a monotypic genus of kelp (large brown algae) comprising the species Kjellmaniella crassifolia, known as kagome (カゴメ/籠目) in Japanese.[5][6]
It occupies sub-tidal[7] (sublittoral[8]) habitats similar to kombu but in deeper waters,[9] found (anchored to rocky substrates) by its holdfast connected to the stipe. The latter bears undivided blades, as typical for kelp species.[10]
It is characterized by textures appearing on the frond, described as dekoboko (凸凹, paraphrasable as 'bumps and dimples')[11][12] or "gyrations". The species is found growing in the waters of Japan, Korea and Russian Far East (and Sakhalin).[2][10]
The compounded name kagome kombu (カゴメコンブ/籠目昆布, 'kagome kelp') was proposed as standard Japanese common name in 2007.[14] This was prompted by reclassification under the Saccharina genus by Lane et al., 2006, though this was later reversed back to Kjellmaniella by Starko et al., 2019, cowritten by Yotsukura.[5][15] The algae is also known informally as gamo in the seafood market.[16]
The species has received attention in recent years not just for fucoidan content[10] but a more multilateral profile of fucoidan chemicals compared to other seaweeds, and they are now used in dietary supplements, cosmetics, and various processed foods[17] (Cf. § Uses for the particulars).
