Thalassia testudinum seedling responses to changes in salinity and nitrogen levels

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2006
The dominant seagrass in Florida Bay, Thalassia testudinum Banks ex Konig, is a stenohaline species with optimum growth around marine salinity (30–40PSU). Previous studies have examined the responses of mature short shoots of T. testudinum to environmental stresses.

The effects of cropping on the growth of Thalassia testudinum (König) in Jamaica

Aquaculture, 1974
Abstract A study of blade growth in Thalassia testudinum has been carried out in order to evaluate the production potential of this seagrass in Jamaica. Summer and winter values of day length and water temperature differ by 2 h and 2.5°C respectively, and monthly variation in the growth rates of Thalassia shoots is small.

The origin of nitrogen and phosphorus for growth of the marine angiosperm Thalassia testudinum

Marine Biology, 1972
How are high rates of production by Thalassia testudinum Konig maintained in notably nutrient-poor tropical waters? Yield-nutrient supply correlations indicate that a singnificant proportion of the phosphorus, and virtually all nitrogen for leaf growth are taken-up from the sediments, and that growth is generally limited by availability of nitrogen ...

Turtle Grass (Thalassia testudinum Banks ex König) — A Seagrass

1988
Seagrasses are aquatic angiosperms that live and complete their life cycles totally submerged in a saline-to-brackish medium (Thayer et al. 1975). They are unique in that they are the only land plants that have totally returned to the sea. Although not true grasses, their habit of ribbon-like leaves results in meadows or beds resembling terrestrial ...
