Local competition and metapopulation processes drive long-term seagrass-epiphyte population dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is well known that ecological processes such as population regulation and natural enemy interactions potentially occur over a range of spatial scales, and there is a substantial body of literature developing theoretical understanding of the interplay ...

A Proposal for the Lectotype Designation of Ishige foliacea (Phaeophyceae, Ishigeaceae) Using DNA Barcoding

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Three species of the genus Ishige (Phaeophyceae, Ishigeaceae) are known from Korea, Japan and Mexico; they include Ishige foliacea Okamura, I. okamurae Yendo and I. sinicola (Setchell and N.L. Gardner) Chihara. Two species, I. foliacea and I.

CO2 and nutrient-driven changes across multiple levels of organization in zostera noltii ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Increasing evidence emphasizes that the effects of human impacts on ecosystems must be investigated using designs that incorporate the responses across levels of biological organization as well as the effects of multiple stressors.

Epiphyte response to drought and experimental warming in an Andean cloud forest [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/3le]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2014
The high diversity and abundance of vascular epiphytes in tropical montane cloud forest is associated with frequent cloud immersion, which is thought to protect plants from drought stress.

Arboreal Epiphytes in the Soil-Atmosphere Interface: How Often Are the Biggest “Buckets” in the Canopy Empty?

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
Arboreal epiphytes (plants residing in forest canopies) are present across all major climate zones and play important roles in forest biogeochemistry.

Variation in a host-epiphyte relationship along a wave exposure gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The red alga Polysiphonia lanosa (L ) Tandy is an obligate epiphyte that primarily occurs on the fucoid brown algal basiphyte Ascophyllum nodosum (L) Le Jolis In the present study we examine how epiphytic interactions between P lanosa and A nodosum vary ...

Structure of the epiphyte community in a tropical montane forest in SW China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Vascular epiphytes are an understudied and particularly important component of tropical forest ecosystems. However, owing to the difficulties of access, little is known about the properties of epiphyte-host tree communities and the factors structuring ...

Epiphyte load on the seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile does not indicate anthropogenic nutrient loading in Cabrera Archipelago National Park (Balearic Islands, Western Mediterranean)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2008
The epiphyte load on the leaves of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile was estimated at the end of summer in three sites and two depths (7 m and 17 m) of the Cabrera Archipelago National Park (Balearic Islands, Western Mediterranean) from 2004 to

Pigment and fatty acid profiling reveal differences in epiphytic microphytes among tropical Thalassodendron ciliatum meadows

open access: yes, 2020
Tropical seagrasses support abundant and diverse epiphytic microalgae that form the base of seagrass food webs. To help better understand the influence of structural variability of tropical seagrass meadows on associated microalgal epiphytes, we ...

Nitrogen uptake and internal recycling in Zostera marina exposed to oyster farming: eelgrass potential as a natural biofilter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Oyster farming in estuaries and coastal lagoons frequently overlaps with the distribution of seagrass meadows, yet there are few studies on how this aquaculture practice affects seagrass physiology.
