Epiphytes modulate Posidonia oceanica photosynthetic production, energetic balance, antioxidant mechanisms and oxidative damage [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Epiphytes impose physical barriers to light penetration into seagrass leaves causing shading, which may decrease the production of oxygen reactive species (ROS), but also constitute a physical aggression that may trigger the production of ROS, leading to

Microplastic pollution associated with reduced respiration in seagrass (Zostera marina L.) and associated epiphytes

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Seagrasses provide crucial ecosystem services of relevance for the marine environment. However, anthropogenic activities are causing global seagrass decline.

Putting vascular epiphytes on the traits map [PDF]

, 2022
1. Plant functional traits impact the fitness and environmental niche of plants. Major plant functional types have been characterized by their trait spectrum, and the environmental and phylogenetic imprints on traits have advanced several ecological ...

Vascular Epiphyte Diversity Differs with Host Crown Zone and Diameter, but Not Orientation in a Tropical Cloud Forest. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Vascular epiphytes are important components of biological diversity in tropical forests. We measured the species richness and abundance of vascular epiphytes along four vertical crown zones and five horizontal orientations on 376 trees, as well as the ...

Analysis of diversity and functional traits of epiphytic lichens in Dagestan forests of different formations

Юг России: экология, развитие, 2022
Aim. The structure of forest communities changes along the altitude gradient, which determines the composition of epiphytic lichens. The aim of the study is to compare the species composition and functional characteristics of epiphytic lichens in ...

Determinant factors for epiphyte-phorophyte interactions in patches of cloud forest within a matrix of campos rupestres [PDF]

Acta Botânica Brasílica
The epiphytic flora is influenced by the architecture and morpho-physiology of phorophytes. Our knowledge about the ecology of these communities remains limited, especially in the campos rupestres.

Analyis on the vascular epiphytes of tree ferns in a montane rain forest in Costa Rica

Revista de Matemática: Teoría y Aplicaciones, 2009
The relationships between epiphytes and host specifity are known. We investigated the relation between specific epiphytes and tree fern trunks. Only some epiphytes are frequent or very frequent on tree ferns.

The complete chloroplast genome of Platycerium wallichii (Polypodiaceae), an endangered and ornamental fern species

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
The complete chloroplast genome of a staghorn fern species (Platycerium wallichii) was sequenced. The total genome was 158,286 bp in length, containing four regions: large single-copy (LSC) region (79,087 bp), small single-copy (SSC) region (21,397 bp ...
