A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

Physiology of purple sulfur bacteria forming macroscopic aggregates in Great Sippewissett Salt Marsh, Massachusetts [PDF]

, 1993
Purple bacterial aggregates found in tidal pools of Great Sippewissett Salt Marsh (Falmouth, Cape Cod, MA) were investigated in order to elucidate the ecological significance of cell aggregation. Purple sulfur bacteria were the dominant microorganisms in

Variable Effects on Benthic Community From Diking to Eradicate Invasive Plants in the Yangtze Estuary Salt Marsh

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The removal of invasive plants is a global concern, and ecological restoration methods have been a major research topic in recent years. In the estuarine salt marsh of the Yangtze River, dikes are typically used in ecological restoration projects to ...

The German Soil Systematics and the Rationale Behind Its Revision

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The German Soil Systematics is a pedogenetic classification based on the morphological expressions of pedogenic processes and has been developed over several stages since 1952. The system has successfully been in use for soil classification and soil survey for almost 70 years.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Can thin-lipped mullet directly exploit the primary and detritic production of European macrotidal salt marshes? [PDF]

, 2002
Juveniles and adults (>100 mm) of Liza ramada colonize macrotidal salt marsh creeks of Mont Saint-Michel bay (France)between March and November, during spring tide floods (43% of the tides) and return to coastal waters during the ebb.

A Study on the Distribution Characteristics of Salinity and Nutrients and the Migration Mechanism of Soil Salt in the Delingha Saline‐Alkali Soil Profile of the Qaidam Basin

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinization negatively impacts the economic development and ecological environment, particularly in the arid and semiarid regions of China. The Qaidam Basin constitutes a major distribution area of saline‐alkali land in the country. However, the distribution patterns of salinity and nutrients within soil profiles and the underlying salt ...

Geostatistical evaluation of integrated marsh management impact on mosquito vectors using before-after-control-impact (BACI) design

International Journal of Health Geographics, 2009
Background In many parts of the world, salt marshes play a key ecological role as the interface between the marine and the terrestrial environments. Salt marshes are also exceedingly important for public health as larval habitat for mosquitoes that are ...

Storage treatment and diluent cause inconsistencies in commonly used fluorometric microplate enzyme assays conducted with saltmarsh soils

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Fluorometric enzyme assays are a tool for determining potential enzyme activity in soils. A wide array of methodological approaches is adopted by different studies, making comparisons difficult. An important consideration is whether assay conditions replicate the environment of the samples or optimize potential enzyme activity.
