Adaptaciones fisiológicas en algunas especies de mangles
Acta Biológica Colombiana, 1990 The role of manitol and proline on the osmotic balance of Aegiceras corniculatum, Aegialitis annul ata and Laguncularia racemosa were studied. Mangrove plants were grown in hydroponic cultures for several years before using them for the experiments ...

Leaf characteristics and gas exchange of the mangrove Laguncularia racemosa as affected by salinity
Photosynthetica, 2005 Under constant salinity we analysed the leaf characteristics of Laguncularia racemosa (L.) Gaertn. in combination with gas exchange and carbon isotopic composition to estimate leaf water-use efficiency (WUE) and potential nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE). NaCl was not added to the control plants and the others were maintained at salinities of 15 and 30 ‰ (
