Improving seed‐based restoration in Eelgrass (Zostera marina) in combined aquarium and field experiments

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Seagrass restoration efforts are being implemented globally to accelerate the slow natural recolonization success. Among the various existing methods, seed‐based approaches offer the greatest scalability for species like Zostera marina, yet these methods remain undeveloped for a number of sub‐tidal systems like the Baltic Sea ...

Improved chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation of the seagrass, Zostera marina (eelgrass) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2021
Background: Seagrasses (Alismatales) are the only fully marine angiosperms. Zostera marina (eelgrass) plays a crucial role in the functioning of coastal marine ecosystems and global carbon sequestration.

Plastid Genome Evolution Across the Roridulaceae–Sarraceniaceae Clade (Ericales) in Relation to Carnivorous Strategies

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The Roridulaceae–Sarraceniaceae clade exhibits strikingly divergent carnivorous strategies, providing a framework to examine how trophic shifts influence plastid genome evolution. Comparative plastome analyses reveal recurrent ndh gene disruption across species, while Roridula gorgonias shows pronounced genomic restructuring, including elevated ...

Phylogenomics and morphology reveal a new species of Anthurium (Araceae) endemic to the Caatinga Domain in Brazil

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The Caatinga is an exclusively Brazilian phytogeographic domain characterized by xerophytic vegetation, high biodiversity, and remarkable levels of endemism. Despite its ecological importance, this region remains understudied, particularly in terms of its floristic diversity.

The ecology of Egeria densa Planchón (Liliopsida: Alismatales): A wetland ecosystem engineer? [PDF]

open access: yesRevista chilena de historia natural, 2009
Egeria densa Planchon es considerada una especie invasora en los sistemas acuaticos de Chile. Su distribucion geografica original estaba limitada a regiones subtropicales de Brasil, Argentina y Uruguay. Su crecimiento rapido y su tendencia a formar densas coberturas suelen estar asociadas con el estado de aguas claras en ecosistemas acuaticos ...

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 680-692, March 2026.
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Aquatic and palustrine angiosperms of viruá national park, brazilian amazon-nymphaeales, alismatales, dioscoreales, and arecales

open access: yes, 2019
The Viruá National Park (VNP) with its different plant formations (rainforest, white-sand savannas—“campinaranas,” and “buritizais”) is located in a region still lacking in botanical studies (Guiana Shield and Brazilian Amazon).

Microbial communities in sediment from Zostera marina patches, but not the Z. marina leaf or root microbiomes, vary in relation to distance from patch edge [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Background Zostera marina (also known as eelgrass) is a foundation species in coastal and marine ecosystems worldwide and is a model for studies of seagrasses (a paraphyletic group in the order Alismatales) that include all the known fully submerged ...

A Comparison of DNA Metabarcoding Cloacal Swabs and Stomach Contents for Shark Diet Reconstruction

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Our results indicate that the less invasive, non‐lethal method of DNA metabarcoding cloacal swabs provided higher taxonomic resolution than more common methods for studying shark trophic ecology (i.e., morphological stomach contents identification and trophic biomarkers) with no statistical difference in overall diet description between cloacal swabs ...
