The Microbial Communities of Leaves and Roots Associated with Turtle Grass (Thalassia testudinum) and Manatee Grass (Syringodium filliforme) are Distinct from Seawater and Sediment Communities, but Are Similar between Species and Sampling Sites

Microorganisms, 2018
Seagrasses are vital members of coastal systems, which provide several important ecosystem services such as improvement of water quality, shoreline protection, and serving as shelter, food, and nursery to many species, including economically important ...

Phylogenetic phytogeography of selected groups of seagrasses (Monocotylendoneae - Alismatales) based on analysing of genes 5.8S rRNA and RuBisCo large subunit

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2022
Seagrasses are representatives of the families Cymodoceaceae, Posidoniaceae, Zosteraceae, Hydrocharitaceae (Monocotylendoneae - Alismatales), adapted to growing in seawaters and all their important life circle events are taking place under the water ...

Spatio-Temporal Variability of Anthropogenic and Natural Wrack Accumulations along the Driftline: Marine Litter Overcomes Wrack in the Northern Sandy Beaches of Portugal

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Marine litter can end up deposited on sandy beaches and become entangled in the natural wrack, threatening its roles in ecosystems. However, it is currently unknown whether the storage of both artificial and natural accumulations on sandy beaches is ...

Response. Commentary. Evaluating the role of seagrass in cenozoic CO2 variations [PDF]

, 2017
Marine seagrass angiosperms play an important role in carbon sequestration, removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and binding it as organic matter. Carbon is stored in the plants themselves, but also in the sediments both in inorganic and organic

Molluscs from Tidal Channels of the Gulf of Gabès (Tunisia): Quantitative Data and Comparison with Other Lagoons and Coastal Waters of the Mediterranean Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The present study analyses the spatio-temporal structuration of the molluscan fauna from four tidal channels of the Gulf of Gabès. A total of 26 stations were sampled at four seasons from March 2016 to January 2017, leading to the identification of 2695 ...

Characterization and Comparison of Bacterial Communities of an Invasive and Two Native Caribbean Seagrass Species Sheds Light on the Possible Influence of the Microbiome on Invasive Mechanisms

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Invasive plants, including marine macrophytes, are one of the most important threats to biodiversity by displacing native species and organisms depending on them.

Accelerated Flowering and Differential Florigen Gene Expression of Seagrass <i>Zostera marina</i> Under Experimental Warming. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Flowering is an important trait for the resilience of seagrasses. Using a native seagrass, Zostera marina, we applied a common garden approach to experimentally test how flowering and its underlying molecular mechanisms responded to elevated water temperature (+3°C).

A Facilitation Cascade Enhances Local Biodiversity in Seagrass Beds

Diversity, 2019
Invertebrate diversity can be a key driver of ecosystem functioning, yet understanding what factors influence local biodiversity remains uncertain. In many marine and terrestrial systems, facilitation cascades where primary foundation and/or autogenic ...

Light is more important than nutrient ratios of fertilization for cymodocea nodosa seedling development [PDF]

, 2018
Restoration of seagrass beds through seedlings is an alternative to the transplantation of adult plants that reduces the impact over donor areas and increases the genetic variability of restored meadows.
