Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the

Genomic and secondary metabolites of the marine cyanobacterium Capilliphycus salinus ALCB114379

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Assembling high‐quality genomes from underexplored environments can be helpful for understanding microbial diversity and identifying novel species. The Cyanobacterium type strain Capilliphycus salinus ALCB114379 is a representative of Oscillatoriales order isolated from a supralittoral zone of the south Atlantic Ocean in Brazil, an ecotone ...

Mangrove Transplantation to the North: Carbon Sequestration Capacity—Drivers and Strategies

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Mangroves play a pivotal role in carbon sequestration. To investigate the characteristics and driving factors of carbon sequestration in planted mangrove forests, we focused on planted mangrove forests in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, China. Through a

The use of mangroves for aquaculture: Cambodia. [PDF]

, 2004
Natural conditions of the coastal and ecosystems of Cambodia have made this country rich of biodiversity resources. Cambodia’s 435 km coastline is covered with large estuaries with about 85,100 ha of mangrove forests (Nelson 1999).

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

On the relationship between Photosystem II thermotolerance and irreversible heat damage in leaves of Rhizophora mangle

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Temperature‐F0 fluorescence curves of Rhizophora mangle leaves demonstrate that Tcrit, the temperature at which F0 begins to rise, is unrelated to tissue necrosis; irreversible leaf damage starts to occur at significantly higher temperatures where fluorescence emission is maximal. Abstract Global temperatures are on the rise and may, together with more

Wetland plant growth in recycled glass sand versus dredged river sand: evaluating a new resource for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sand made from recycled glass cullet could supplement limited dredged river sand (dredge) in coastal wetland restorations; however, its suitability for wetland plants is unknown. In two experiments, we compared the biomass of several wetland plants in recycled glass sand to growth in dredge.

Science-based restoration monitoring of coastal habitats, Volume Two: Tools for monitoring coastal habitats [PDF]

, 2005
Healthy coastal habitats are not only important ecologically; they also support healthy coastal communities and improve the quality of people’s lives. Despite their many benefits and values, coastal habitats have been systematically modified, degraded ...
