Seagrass Meadows: Prospective Candidates for Bioactive Molecules

open access: yesMolecules
Seagrass meadows consist of angiosperms that thrive fully submerged in marine environments and form distinct ecosystems. They provide essential support for many organisms, acting as nursery grounds for species of economic importance.

Stress Memory in Seagrasses: First Insight Into the Effects of Thermal Priming and the Role of Epigenetic Modifications

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
While thermal priming and the relative role of epigenetic modifications have been widely studied in terrestrial plants, their roles remain unexplored in seagrasses so far.

Human pressure, habitat heterogeneity and species traits jointly determine the level of dark diversity in coastal fish communities

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding how anthropogenic pressures and environmental gradients shape coastal fish communities is a central question in biogeography and marine conservation. Yet, the set of species expected to occur at a site given ecological conditions but being absent – the so‐called dark diversity – has received far less attention than observed species, even ...

Pilot seagrass transplantation trials in Forsters Bay, Narooma, NSW [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Summary: The last reported extent of seagrass coverage in the Wagonga Inlet, Narooma was given as 148 ha, although estimates of seagrass coverage vary considerably. The channel area consists of approximately 4 ha or 2.7% of this total coverage.

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

open access: yesGeography, 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 ...

Nested Carbon Governance in Southeast Asia: Towards Just Nature‐Based Solutions?

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NbS) have gained prominence as an integrated approach to addressing climate change and biodiversity loss while supporting sustainable development. Yet, their implementation across Southeast Asia remains fragmented and often contested.

Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Rhizome, root/sediment interactions, aerenchyma and internal pressure changes in seagrasses

open access: yes, 2018
© Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018. Life in seawater presents several challenges for seagrasses owing to low O 2 and CO 2 solubility and slow gas diffusion rates.

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

open access: yesPlants
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 ...
