Highlights in Seagrasses’ Phylogeny, Physiology, and Metabolism: What Makes Them Special? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The marine seagrasses form an ecological and therefore paraphyletic group of marine hydrophilus angiosperms which evolved three to four times from land plants towards an aquatic and marine existence.

Going With the Flow? Relative Importance of Riverine Hydrologic Connectivity Versus Tidal Influence for Spatial Structure of Genetic Diversity and Relatedness in a Foundational Submersed Aquatic Plant

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
We assessed genotypic and genetic diversity in the submersed aquatic plant species Vallisneria americana in the Potomac River, USA, to understand how riverine hydrologic connectivity and tidal regime affected spatial genetic structure. We found striking differences in the structure of diversity, clonal growth, and relatedness in different tidal ...

Employing invertebrates to restore herbivory on Caribbean coral reefs: recent developments and remaining barriers

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, May 2025.
With coral reefs in global decline and further threatened by growing anthropogenic impacts, effective strategies for restoring these critical ecosystems are increasingly sought after. In Caribbean reefs, where disease outbreaks and fishing pressure have reduced herbivore abundances and facilitated widespread phase shifts from coral to algal dominance ...

Spatial and seasonal variability in elemental content, δ13C, and δ15N ofThalassia testudinum from South Florida and its implications for ecosystem studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Elemental and isotopic composition of leaves of the seagrassThalassia testudinum was highly variable across the 10,000 km2 and 8 years of this study. The data reported herein expand the reported range in carbon:nitrogen (C:N) and carbon:phosphorus (C:P ...

Carbon acquisition mechanisms in Halophila johnsonii and Thalassia testudinum

open access: yesAquatic Botany, 2019
Abstract Mechanisms for carbon uptake in the small-bodied Halophila johnsonii and large-bodied Thalassia testudinum were compared using photosynthesis measurements (oxygen flux) with, and without, the extracellular carbonic anhydrase inhibitor acetazolamide (AZ) and TRIS buffer. Our results indicated T. testudinum and H.

How much seagrass does a dugong need? Metabolic rate of live wild dugongs, Dugong dugon, determined through indirect calorimetry (oxygen consumption)

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Deterioration of seagrass beds worldwide has raised concern about the future of dugongs because almost all aspects of their life history depend on availability of seagrass. Understanding their energy metabolism and consequently how much seagrass they need will inform protective conservation strategies for dugongs. This study determined resting

Habitat Configuration Alters Herbivory across the Tropical Seascape [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
There exists increasing evidence that top-down ecological processes, such as herbivory are key in controlling marine ecosystems and their community structure. Herbivory has the potential to be altered by numerous environmental and ecological factors that

Micobiota endófita de Thalassia testudinum König en el Caribe colombiano

open access: yesBoletín de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras, 2023
Se evaluó la presencia de hongos endófitos en hojas de Thalassia testudinum a través del secuenciamiento de la región ITS encontrando abundancias de Ascomicetos (35,9 %), Basidiomicetos (2,9 %) y un alto porcentaje (60 %) de secuencias no clasificadas dada la limitada base de datos existentes.
