Impact of Anthropogenic Pollution on the Plant Species Diversity and Composition Along the Riparian Ecotones of Goa's Sal and Zuari Rivers. [PDF]

Plant Environ Interact
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic pressures are increasingly constraining the health of riparian ecosystems by exposing their remnant vegetation to edge effects. Despite being at the land–water interface, conservation efforts have often overlooked how water pollution may indirectly exacerbate the broader impacts of anthropogenic pressures on riparian vegetation ...

A Trade-Off Between Leaf Carbon Economics and Plant Size Among Mangrove Species in Dongzhaigang, China. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Shrubs and trees show distinct leaf traits in response to intertidal gradients. Larger mangrove plants have lower leaf carbon efficiency. For each growth form and intertidal zone, plant size–trait patterns remain applicable. ABSTRACT Plant size is closely linked to its leaf trait characteristics, which are essential for determining its form and ...

Comparative Analysis of Transcriptomes in Rhizophoraceae Provides Insights into the Origin and Adaptive Evolution of Mangrove Plants in Intertidal Environments

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Mangroves are woody plants that grow at the interface between land and sea in tropical and subtropical latitudes, where they exist in conditions of high salinity, extreme tides, strong winds, high temperatures, and muddy, anaerobic soils.
