Endophytic bacterial community of a Mediterranean marine angiosperm (Posidonia oceanica)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Bacterial endophytes are crucial for the survival of many terrestrial plants, but little is known about the presence and importance of bacterial endophytes of marine plants.

Effect of habitat degradation on competition, carrying capacity, and species assemblage stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In human-impacted rivers, nutrient pollution has the potential to disrupt biodiversity organisation and ecosystem functioning, prompting calls for effective monitoring and management.

Photosynthesis under far‐red light—evolutionary adaptations and bioengineering of light‐harvesting complexes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 2, Page 164-187, January 2026.
Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

Temperature effects on decomposition of a Posidonia oceanica mat [PDF]

open access: yesAquatic Microbial Ecology, 2011
14 páginas, 5 tablas, 4 figuras ,1 apéndice con 3 tablas. Posidonia oceanica mats act as an important carbon (C) sink in the Mediterranean by accumulating roots, rhizomes and leaf sheaths, and allochthonous organic matter over millennia due to low rates of decomposition of organic matter.

Warm Edge Kelp Populations Show Elevated Volatility to Marine Heatwaves

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
Limited data on how heat stress affects species across their distribution restricts prediction accuracy. Our long‐term reef observational data supports a hybrid thermal performance model, whereby thermal limits differ between populations, but performance volatility increases toward species' warm‐edge, heightening vulnerability of warm‐edge populations.

A century of warfare shoots holes in anti-Caulerpa campaign [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Effort to have all varieties of the marine alga Caulerpa taxifolia listed as noxious weeds hinges on the argument that the alga's proliferation in the Mediterranean Sea is a cause and not a consequence of environmental degradation.

Subtropical seagrass epiphytes: Nitrogen fixation rates align with Crocosphaera‐like cyanobacteria abundances

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 12, Page 3958-3971, December 2025.
Abstract Nitrogen fixers can enhance nitrogen availability for seagrass communities that may be nitrogen limited. However, the role of epiphytic diazotrophs, particularly cyanobacteria, in seagrass communities is not well understood. We measured nitrogen fixation rates, epiphyte biomass, and relative abundances of epiphytic diazotrophs on the leaves of

Nutrient mass balance of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica: the importance of nutrient retranslocation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The seasonal nutrient mass balance of the dominant seagrass of the Mediterranean, Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delde, was evaluated in NE Spain in order to test the hypothesis that the effect of seasonal nutrient imbalance can be reduced by the reutilization ...

Landscape‐Mediated Effects of Climate Change on Metacommunities Inhabiting Mediterranean Seagrass

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change affects dramatically biogenic habitats by altering the geographic distribution of the foundational species and the structure of landscapes they form. As a consequence, the associated biotic communities could experience habitat loss and fragmentation.
