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

The influence of migratory birds on the distribution of the seagrass Zostera japonica

Botanica Marina, 2020
Abstract Grazing pressure by animals can change the distribution and biomass of seagrass. We examined grazing pressure by conducting transect surveys and acquiring aerial images by drone before and after the arrival of migratory birds along the Asadokoro tide flats, Aomori Prefecture, Japan.

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.

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.

Exploring the leaf regeneration cycles response of Zostera japonica to ocean acidification

Science of The Total Environment
Ocean acidification is one of the major global environmental problems facing humankind today, and it has far-reaching impacts on marine organisms and the entire marine ecosystem. Zostera japonica, an important supporting species of intertidal seagrass beds, exhibits high photosynthetic productivity and plays an important role in the carbon cycle of ...

Temporal dynamics of subtidal Zostera marina and intertidal Zostera japonica on the southern coast of Korea

Marine Ecology, 2006
AbstractThe temporal dynamics of two seagrass species, Zostera marina and Z. japonica, were monitored monthly in Dadae Bay, Geoje Island, on the southern coast of Korea. Plant morphological characteristics, shoot density, biomass, leaf production, reproductive effort, and environmental characteristics were monitored from July 2001 to July 2002. Zostera

A multivariate comparison of the seagrasses Zostera marina and Zostera japonica in monospecific versus mixed populations

Canadian Journal of Botany, 1991
The seagrasses Zostera marina and Zostera japonica coexist along a portion of a gradual intertidal gradient at Roberts Bank, British Columbia. Individual comparisons of 11 morphological and 2 population characters for Z. marina did not reveal consistently significant differences between the deeper water monospecific population and the population in ...

Seed and seedling dynamics of the seagrass, Zostera japonica Aschers. and Graebn. and the influence of Zostera marina L.

2010
The seagrass Zostera japonica Aschers. and Graebn. occurs as pure populations and in mixture with Zostera marina L. along the intertidal regions of southwest British Columbia. At the Roberts Bank study area seed and seedling dynamics were studied in three vegetation zones: a landward monospecific zone of Z. japonica, a zone of co-existing Z.

Interactive biology of two seagrasses, Zostera marina L. and Zostera japonica Aschers. & Graebn.

2010
The two seagrasses Zostera marina L. and Zostera japonica Aschers. and Graebn. coexist in an intertidal region of the south-west coast of British Columbia. At the Roberts Bank study area three vegetation zones were identified; a seaward monospecific zone of Z. marina cover, a zone of mixed Z. marina and Z.

Allozymic implications of the propagation of eelgrass Zostera japonica within a river system

Limnology, 2006
We examined the allozymic variation of Zostera japonica, a seagrass in brackish-water zones, for plant samples collected from the Ohashi River (four localities including nine sampling sites within 7.5km) and Lake Nakaumi (one location), to which it is connected, in Japan to study plant propagation.
