Seawater warming is emerging as a result of increasing global temperature. In this study, Zostera japonica (Ascherson and Graebner) collected from the intertidal zones of Changdao (37°N, 120°E) were used to investigate the responses of photosynthetic electron transport to thermal exposure in April 2016.

Community Changes Associated with the Spread of an Introduced Seagrass, Zostera Japonica
Ecology, 1988Species introductions have provided a valuable source of information for understanding the factors that regulate community composition. However, the effect of such introductions has often been obscured by a lack of information on distribution and abundance patterns before or during an invasion event.

Two species of eelgrass can be found in Padilla Bay, Washington (Zostera japonica and Zostera marina) and act as a bioindicators of ecosystem health. Many factors can contribute to the status of an eelgrass bed, including light, temperature, salinity, and nutrients.

The effects of epiphytic algae and their grazers on the intertidal seagrass Zostera japonica
Aquatic Botany, 2000Abstract The impact of the dominant grazers (Clithon spp.) of epiphytic algae on the biomass and percentage cover of a population of the intertidal seagrass Zostera japonica was investigated at Lai Chi Wo, northeast Hong Kong. The population density of Clithon spp. followed a seasonal pattern, varying between 2800 individuals m−2 in winter.

Abstract The effects of water temperature and bottom sediment type were studied on seed dormancy and germination of Zostera japonica Ascherson & Graebner in mesocosm. To test whether the germination rate is affected by cold stratification, seeds were divided into two groups: those exposed to cold (7 °C) and those left untreated (23–15 °C ...

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2015
Abstract At least two seagrass congeners in the genus Zostera are found along the Pacific Coast of North America: native Zostera marina L. and the non-native Zostera japonica Aschers. & Graebn. Efforts to understand the drivers behind the expanding colonization of Z. japonica have led to interest in the biology and ecology of this species. In

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.

Abstract Restoration of Zostera japonica is needed. Laboratory culture experiments to know the germination characteristics might be helpful for implementation of actual restoration. As a part of germination experiments, we explored suitable water temperature for long-term storage of Z. japonica seeds.

Abstract Shoot dynamics and morphology were studied in co-occuring intertidal populations of Zostera japonica Aschers. and Graebn. and Ruppia maritima L. s.l. in southwestern British Columbia. Repeated mapping and examination of cohorts of shoots (ramets) in permanent plots on a gradient in elevation showed that the appearance and loss of shoots,

AbstractThe introduction of non-native species can alter the structure of local communities and ecosystems. Although there is concern over the negative effects imposed by introduced species, positive effects are also possible. Introduced species may facilitate local resident species by providing or modifying habitat; these positive effects are ...
