Abstract Research on the culture of Gelidium rex was approached from two points of view, growth of thalli from spores and growth from re-attachment. Mollusk shells, which are very easy to handle, were used in both systems. The results achieved by these methods showed that reattachment is the technique that obtains larger plants in a shorter time. This is the first stage in developing culture and cultivation techniques aimed at commercial exploitation of this species in Chile.
