Recovery of a cultivation grazer: A mechanism for compensatory growth of Thalassia testudinum in a Caribbean seagrass meadow grazed by green turtles

Journal of Ecology, 2020
Recovery of green turtles (Chelonia mydas), mega‐herbivores that consume seagrasses, is resulting in dramatic ecosystem‐wide changes as meadows are returned to a natural grazed state.

Sea grasses, a new unreported habitat for the heterobranch mollusk Umbraculum umbraculum in the Caribbean region

Marine and Fishery Sciences, 2020
Herein, a new habitat for the heterobranch mollusk Umbraculum is described. One specimen was found on a Thalassia testudinum bed at Taganga Bay at 3 m depth, a buffer area of the Tayrona National Park, Colombian Caribbean.

Spatio-Temporal Variation in Cyanobacteria and Epiphytic Algae of Thalassia testudinum in Two Localities of Southern Quintana Roo, Mexico

Diversity
The leaves of Thalassia testudinum provide an ideal substrate for the establishment of small-sized algae with different morphologies that are abundant and diverse. There are few studies on epiphytism in Mexico, and most of them are floristic lists.

Field settlement trap designs for Cassiopea spp. polyp recruitment: A preliminary study

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract High densities of upside‐down jellyfish (Cassiopea spp.) have been documented in anthropogenically disturbed coastal ecosystems including Jobos Bay, Puerto Rico. However, understanding their field ecology remains limited because most studies are laboratory‐based, focusing on life history and symbiotic relationships.

Stress‐Resistant Symbiodiniaceae and Diverse Bacterial Communities Promote Coral Persistence in Variable, Multi‐Stressor Environments

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Corals living in multi‐stressor bays in Curaçao maintain stress‐tolerant symbiotic algae and specialized bacterial communities in comparison to those in nearby reefs. These findings provide insight into how Caribbean coral holobionts persist in extreme and marginal conditions and may respond under future environmental conditions.

Soil Carbon Stocks in Fijian Seagrass: Environmental Drivers, National Inventories, and Implications for Blue Carbon Accounting in Small Island Settings

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Pacific island seagrass systems remain critically underrepresented in global blue carbon assessments despite their potential significance for climate mitigation. We present the first national‐scale assessment of seagrass soil carbon stocks for a Pacific island nation based on 135 sediment cores from 47 sites across Fiji.

Antiviral activity of a crude extract of Thalassia testudinum Banks ex König against the human enteroviruses echovirus 9 and coxsackievirus A16 [PDF]

Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmacognosy Research
Context: Echovirus 9 (E9) and coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) are etiological agents of aseptic meningitis and hand, foot, and mouth disease, respectively. Currently, there are no approved antiviral drugs against these viruses.
