Testing biodegradable interventions to disrupt plant–animal feedbacks and promote seagrass establishment

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2026.
Biogeochemical and physical feedbacks are well known to prevent ecosystem recovery even after initial disturbance factors are mitigated. However, multi‐trophic interactions that may maintain disturbed areas have received less attention, despite their potential importance in mediating restoration success. In this study, we surveyed stingray feeding pits

Clonal diversity in populations of the seagrass thalassia testudinum in rabbit key basin, Florida bay

open access: yes, 1998
Levels of clonal diversity within the seagrass Thalassia testudinum Banks ex Kӧnig have been predicted to be low. This species has historically been perceived as relying on vegetative propagation for growth and extension of meadows, the role of sexual ...

Subtropical seagrass epiphytes: Nitrogen fixation rates align with Crocosphaera‐like cyanobacteria abundances

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 12, Page 3958-3971, December 2025.
Abstract Nitrogen fixers can enhance nitrogen availability for seagrass communities that may be nitrogen limited. However, the role of epiphytic diazotrophs, particularly cyanobacteria, in seagrass communities is not well understood. We measured nitrogen fixation rates, epiphyte biomass, and relative abundances of epiphytic diazotrophs on the leaves of

Biomasa y densidad de dos especies de pastos marinos en el sur de Quintana Roo, México

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2000
La biomasa y productividad de una comunidad de pastos marinos es útil para determinar el estado ecológico de la costa. Se comparó la biomasa foliar y la densidad de vainas en praderas de Thalassia testudinum Banks & Sol. ex K. D. Koenig, en dos ambientes

Up, Down, and All Around: Courtship Behavior Deviants and Genetic Divergence in the Reef‐Dwelling Bioluminescent Ostracod, Photeros annecohenae (Myodocopida: Cypridinidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Species that have complex courtship behaviors are some of the most evolutionarily diverse lineages observed in nature. Here, we quantify differences in the courtship behavior, morphology, and genetics of a group of bioluminescent marine ostracod residents of the Mesoamerican barrier reef of Belize.

A Land-Based Thalassia testudinum Nursery Near Tampa Bay, Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
An experimental, land-based seagrass nursery, built near Tampa Bay, FL, produced cultivars of Thalassia testudinum Banks and Solander ex König (turtle grass).

Contrasting effects of rhizosphere and sediment microbiota on seagrass performance in response to a simulated marine heatwave

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 9, Page 2429-2446, September 2025.
We experimentally disrupted below‐ground microbial communities to test their role in the growth and survival of the seagrass Zostera muelleri under two marine heatwave scenarios. Seagrass leaf growth declined with rhizosphere microbiome disruption across all temperature and sediment conditions.

Ictiofauna juvenil asociada a Thalassia testudinum en Laguna Yalahau, Quintana Roo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The juvenile ichthyofauna associated with Thalassia testudinum meadows in Yalahau lagoon, was analized during an annual cycle (from June 2001 to May 2002), for such effect, night hauls with a Renfro net were made.
