Evidence for synonymizing Zostera americana den hartog with Zostera japonica Aschers. & Graebn.

Aquatic Botany, 1982
Abstract A numerical analysis of four species of the Zostera subgenus Zosterella was conducted to determine the taxonomic position of Zostera americana den Hartog. Results of principal components analysis support the determination that Z. americana on the northeast Pacific coast is synonymous with Zostera japonica Aschers. & Graebn.

A set of microsatellite primers for Zostera japonica (Zosteraceae)

American Journal of Botany, 2011
• Premise of the study: Polymorphic microsatellite primers were developed in the seagrass Zostera japonica to investigate genetic variation and to identify clonal structure.• Methods and Results: Thirteen polymorphic loci and 23 monomorphic loci were developed in Z. japonica.

Science and Management of the Introduced Seagrass Zostera japonica in North America

Environmental Management, 2013
Healthy seagrass is considered a prime indicator of estuarine ecosystem function. On the Pacific coast of North America, at least two congeners of Zostera occur: native Zostera marina, and introduced, Zostera japonica. Z. japonica is considered "invasive" and therefore, ecologically and economically harmful by some, while others consider it benign or ...

Comparison of photosynthetic characteristics of the seagrass congeners Zostera marina L. and Zostera japonica Ascher. & Graeb.

Aquatic Botany, 2014
Abstract On the Pacific coast of North America two seagrass species in the genus Zostera co-exist; the native species Zostera marina, and an introduced species, Zostera japonica. These two species typically occupy separate tidal elevations, with Z. marina occupying the lower intertidal and shallow subtidal zones, and Z. japonica occupying the mid- to

Overexpression of Zostera japonica heat shock protein gene ZjHsp70 enhances the thermotolerance of transgenic Arabidopsis

Molecular Biology Reports, 2022
Heat shock protein 70s (Hsp70s) are major members of the heat shock protein family and play a variety of roles to protect plants against stress. Plant Hsp70s are a conserved and widely expressed family of heat shock proteins. They have two main functional regions: N-terminal nucleic acid binding region and C-terminal substrate binding region.In this ...

Study on the Antiinflammatory Activity of Methanol Extract from Seagrass Zostera japonica

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2005
Methanolic extracts from the seagrass Zostera japonica were extracted successively using n-hexane (n-C(6)H(14)), dichloromethane (CH(2)Cl(2)), ethyl acetate (EtOAc), and water to give the n-C(6)H(14) (16.8%), CH(2)Cl(2) (40.6%), EtOAc (34.1%), and H(2)O (8.5%) soluble fractions, respectively.

Growth of Zostera japonica in different sediment habitats of the Yellow River estuary in China

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021
The estuarine delta of the Yellow River is a region of strong land-ocean-human interactions that undergoes a unique evolutionary process. The delta is formed by deposition of large quantities of sediments carried by the Yellow River, especially during the annual water and sediment regulation period; more than one-third of the total annual sediments is ...

Development of microsatellite markers for the seagrass Zostera japonica using next-generation sequencing

Molecular Biology Reports, 2018
The seagrass Zostera japonica Asch. & Graebn. is among the few seagrass species that thrive both in temperate and tropical intertidal zones. The degradation of Z. japonica in its native range and continued expansion in some localities have raised concerns with regard to its conservation and management. Population genetic studies of Z.
