Low Long Terminal Repeat (LTR)-Retrotransposon Expression in Leaves of the Marine Phanerogam Posidonia Oceanica L.

Life, 2020
Seagrasses as Posidonia oceanica reproduce mostly by vegetative propagation, which can reduce genetic variability within populations. Since, in clonally propagated species, insurgence of genetic variability can be determined by the activity of ...

Mesophotic animal forests of the Aegean Sea support fish diversity hotspots under high fishing pressure

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Marine animal forests (MAFs) are dense aggregations of habitat‐forming species that constitute essential habitats for diverse taxa including fish. However, the study of MAFs and their associated fauna remains largely skewed to their shallowest occurrence, above 30 m depth.

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

Frontiers 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.

Recent Changes and Variability of Suspended Particulate Matter in European and Mediterranean Coastal Waters Inferred From OLCI Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) plays a central role in coastal marine ecosystems, influencing light availability, primary production, and transport of sediments, nutrients, and pollutants. Monitoring its variability is essential for understanding the impacts of both natural and anthropogenic pressures on coastal regions.

Soil Carbon Stocks in Fijian Seagrass: Environmental Drivers, National Inventories, and Implications for Blue Carbon Accounting in Small Island Settings

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Pacific island seagrass systems remain critically underrepresented in global blue carbon assessments despite their potential significance for climate mitigation. We present the first national‐scale assessment of seagrass soil carbon stocks for a Pacific island nation based on 135 sediment cores from 47 sites across Fiji.

Evaluating the role of seagrass in Cenozoic CO2 variations [PDF]

, 2016
Marine seagrass angiosperms play an important role in carbon sequestration, removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and binding it as organic matter. Carbon is stored in the plants themselves, but also in the sediments both in inorganic and organic

Modelling Palaeodistributions in Marine Environments: A Review

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This scoping review (ScR) synthesises the current literature on the application of Species Distribution Models (SDM) to past marine environments. We assess how these models have been used to reconstruct past environmental suitability, track biogeographical shifts and investigate long‐term ecological dynamics, while identifying key ...

Assessing the Contribution of Posidonia oceanica to Mediterranean Secondary Production Through Stable Isotope Analysis

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The role of seagrasses in providing a complex habitat for marine organisms is globally documented; however, few studies have investigated the trophic incorporation of endemic Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica into marine food webs. Meadows of P.
