Antioxidant activity of Rhizophora mangle bark
Fitoterapia, 2006The antioxidant activity of Rhizophora mangle bark aqueous extract and its majoritary component and high molecular weight polyphenols' fraction were studied using deoxyribose assay. The total extract and its fraction showed scavenging activity of hydroxyl radicals and hability to chelate iron ions.

Gastric antiulcer effect of Rhizophora mangle L
Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2001The effects of the freeze-dried aqueous extract from red mangrove bark on gastric ulceration induced by ethanol-hydrochloric acid were studied in rats. Mucosal damage was compared with that given with cimetidine. The effects of these agents on the quantity and quality of the gastric mucus were also determined.

Characterization of cork warts and aerenchyma in leaves of Rhizophora mangle and Rhizophora racemosa
The Journal of the Torrey Botanical Society, 2010Abstract Mangroves are a diverse group of plants that inhabit tidal zones in the tropics and sub-tropics. Some mangrove species occupy the lower tidal zone in which the substrate is anoxic for long time periods while some mangroves inhabit the upper tidal zone in which the substrate should be less anoxic. Recent research has shown that about 12 species

Stand Structure and Productivity of the Introduced Rhizophora mangle in Hawaii
Estuaries, 1999Since its introduction in the early part of this century,Rhizophora mangle L. has spread extensively through most of the main islands of the Hawaiian Archipelago. We investigated the structural properties and estimated productivity of aR. mangle population at Nuupia Ponds Wildlife Management Area (NPWMA), on windward Oahu, where the mangroves were ...

Microbial degradation of Rhizophora mangle leaves immersed in the sea
Estuarine and Coastal Marine Science, 1979Abstract The leaching and degradation of senescent leaves of red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) immersed in the water column adjacent to a mangrove stand on Virginia Key, Florida were investigated. During the first 70 days the carbon content decreased from 46·2 to 36·2% while the nitrogen content increased from 0·51 to 0·89%.

The Pacific palaeogeography of Rhizophora mangle L. (Rhizophoraceae)
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 1991ELLISON, J. C, 1991. The Pacific palaeogeography of Rhizophora mangle L. (Rhizophoraceae). The American red mangrove, Rhizophora mangle is disjunct in its occurrence between the Neotropics and an outlier in the south-west Pacific, a distribution which has been speculated upon for over a century. The species is shown to be indigenous in Tonga, the first

Fungi Associated with the Roots of Red Mangrove, Rhizophora Mangle
Mycologia, 1973The microbial communities of root-free soil, the rhizosphere and rhizoplane of red mangrove seedlings, Rhizophora mangle L., growing in Heeia swamp, Oahu, Hawaii, were studied by dilution plating, ...

Inheritance of albinism in the red mangrove, Rhizophora mangle L
1983Occasional trees of Rhizophora mangle L. have been found in Puerto Rico and South Florida that bear approximately one fourth albino propagules, apparently a consequence of self-pollination and segregation for a recessive gene. Counts of propagule types on a series of trees that produce albino propagules showed that the albino class is sometimes smaller
