Arsenic and selected elements in marine angiosperms, south-east coast, NSW, Australia

Applied Organometallic Chemistry, 2007
AbstractThe leaves of four angiosperm species, the mangrove Avicennia marina, the samphire Sarcocornia quinqueflora, the seablight Suaeda australis and the seagrass Posidonia australis, were sampled from three locations from the south‐east coast of NSW. Mean total arsenic concentrations (mean ± SD) in dry mass for all locations were A. marina (0.38 ± 0.

Rare long‐distance dispersal of a marine angiosperm across the Pacific Ocean [PDF]

Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2018
AbstractAimLong‐distance dispersal (LDD) events occur rarely but play a fundamental role in shaping species biogeography. Lying at the heart of island biogeography theory, LDD relies on unusual events to facilitate colonization of new habitats and range expansion.

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

F1000Research, 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.

Loss of YABBY2-Like Gene Expression May Underlie the Evolution of the Laminar Style in Canna and Contribute to Floral Morphological Diversity in the Zingiberales. [PDF]

, 2015
The Zingiberales is an order of tropical monocots that exhibits diverse floral morphologies. The evolution of petaloid, laminar stamens, staminodes, and styles contributes to this diversity.

Rate of lineage origin explains the diversity anomaly in the World’s mangrove vegetation [PDF]

, 2006
The contribution of nonecological factors to global patterns in diversity is evident when species richness differs between regions with similar habitats and geographic area. Mangrove environments in the Eastern Hemisphere harbor six times as many species

The Cell Wall of Seagrasses: Fascinating, Peculiar and a Blank Canvas for Future Research

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Seegrasses are a polyphyletic group of angiosperm plants, which evolved from early monocotyledonous land plants and returned to the marine environment around 140 million years ago.

Ecomorphological diversification of squamates in the Cretaceous [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2021
Squamates (lizards and snakes) are highly successful modern vertebrates, with over 10 000 species. Squamates have a long history, dating back to at least 240 million years ago (Ma), and showing increasing species richness in the Late Cretaceous (84 Ma ...

Paleogene monsoons across India and South China: Drivers of biotic change [PDF]

, 2017
Monsoonal climates at low latitudes (2. Fossil leaf form reveals that under such 'hothouse' conditions megathermal early Eocene to earliest Miocene forests were exposed to strong monsoonal climates typical of those experienced today arising from annual ...

Insights into the regulation of energy metabolism during the seed-to-seedling transition in marine angiosperm Zostera marina L.: Integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Seed development is a crucial phase in the life cycle of seed-propagated plants. As the only group of angiosperms that evolved from terrestrial plants to complete their life cycle submerged in marine environments, the mechanisms underlying seed ...

Seagrass genomes reveal a hexaploid ancestry facilitating adaptation to the marine environment

bioRxiv, 2023
Seagrasses comprise the only submerged marine angiosperms, a feat of adaptation from three independent freshwater lineages within the Alismatales. These three parallel lineages offer the unique opportunity to study convergent versus lineage-specific ...
