Flavonoids and anthocyanins in seagrasses: implications for climate change adaptation and resilience [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Seagrasses are a paraphyletic group of marine angiosperms and retain certain adaptations from the ancestors of all embryophytes in the transition to terrestrial environments.

Modulating mechanisms of marine hydrodynamics on global coastal carbon burial [PDF]

Nature Communications
Coastal blue-carbon burial is vulnerable to climate change, yet marine hydrodynamic effects remain poorly quantified. Here we estimate hydrodynamic effects on carbon accumulation rate (CAR), by integrating global observations across mangroves, marshes ...

Transcriptomic Regulation of Aquaporins During Seed Germination in the Marine Seagrass Cymodocea nodosa [PDF]

Plants
Seed germination is a key phase that transitions the seed from dormancy to active growth, where imbibition emerges as the initial event, followed by aquaporin-mediated regulation of cellular water that supports metabolic reactivation under favourable ...

Molecular Networking Leveraging the Secondary Metabolomes Space of Halophila stipulaceae (Forsk.) Aschers. and Thalassia hemprichii (Ehrenb. ex Solms) Asch. in Tandem with Their Chemosystematics and Antidiabetic Potentials

Marine Drugs, 2021
The Red Sea is one of the most biodiverse aquatic ecosystems. Notably, seagrasses possess a crucial ecological significance. Among them are the two taxa Halophila stipulacea (Forsk.) Aschers., and Thalassia hemprichii (Ehrenb. ex Solms) Asch., which were

Baseline Assessment of Ecological Quality Index (EQI) of the Marine Coastal Habitats of Tonga Archipelago: Application for Management of Remote Regions in the Pacific

Remote Sensing, 2023
The loss of coral habitats and associated biodiversity have direct effects both on the physical dynamics of the coast and on natural resources, threatening the survival of local populations.

Rosmarinic Acid and Flavonoids of the Seagrass Zostera noltei: New Aspects on Their Quantification and Their Correlation with Sunlight Exposure

Plants, 2023
Seagrasses are plants adapted to the marine environment that inhabit shallow coastal waters, where they may be exposed to direct sunlight during low tides.

Ocean Acidification Alleviates Dwarf Eelgrass (Zostera noltii) Lipid Landscape Remodeling under Warming Stress

Biology, 2022
Coastal seagrass meadows provide a variety of essential ecological and economic services, including nursery grounds, sediment stabilization, nutrient cycling, coastal protection, and blue carbon sequestration.

Microbiome-assisted restoration of degraded marine habitats: a new nature-based solution?

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Microorganisms interact with all biological components in a variety of ways. They contribute to increase the efficiency of marine food webs and facilitate the adaptation of multicellular organisms to climate change and other human-induced impacts ...

Exploring the newly emerging effects of native seagrasses on survival and growth of non-native juvenile clams

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) has been introduced into the Atlantic European coast for commercial exploitation. In this region, the population dynamics of this clam species may be determined by the interaction with the native dwarf eelgrass ...

Ocean Acidification and Mollusc Settlement in Posidonia oceanica Meadows: Does the Seagrass Buffer Lower pH Effects at CO₂ Vents?

Diversity, 2021
Ocean acidification has been broadly recognised to have effects on the structure and functioning of marine benthic communities. The selection of tolerant or vulnerable species can also occur during settlement phases, especially for calcifying organisms ...
