SALT TOLERANCE OF RUPPIA MARITIMA IN LAKES OF HIGH MAGNESIUM SULPHATE CONTENT [PDF]
The ability of halophytes to develop under conditions which would mean death to most vegetation is well known. Salt marsh plants, growing where sodium chloride is the chief constituent of the soil solution and where salt concentrations usually vary from 1 to 6 per cent., are the most common halophytes.

Meristic and Organogenetic Variation in Ruppia occidentalis and R. maritima
Floral meristic and organogenetic variation was sampled in Ruppia occidentalis from an alkaline lake of the Nebraska Sandhills and in Ruppia maritima var. rostrata from a saline, non-Sandhills lake nearby. The androecium is meristically stable, always having two stamens, but the gynoecium is not. Seventy-two percent of the flowers of R.

Nitrogen Cycling in Widgeongrass and Eelgrass Beds in the Lower Chesapeake Bay
Eelgrass (Zostera marina) loss occurs worldwide due to increasing water temperatures and decreasing water quality. In the U.S., widgeongrass (Ruppia maritima), a more heat-tolerant seagrass species, is replacing eelgrass in certain areas.
