Helical Microstructures of the Mineralized Coralline Red Algae Determine Their Mechanical Properties

Through controlled biomineralization, organisms yield complicated structures with specific functions. Here, Jania sp., an articulated coralline red alga that secretes high‐Mg calcite as part of its skeleton, is in focus. It is shown that Jania sp. exhibits a remarkable structure, which is highly por...
