Population genetic patterns across the native and invasive range of a widely distributed seagrass: Phylogeographic structure, invasive history and conservation implications. [PDF]
Abstract Aim The seagrass Zostera japonica is a dramatically declined endemic species in the Northwestern Pacific from the (sub)tropical to temperate areas, however, it is also an introduced species along the Pacific coast of North America from British Columbia to northern California.

Enzymatic hydrolysis of seaweed and seagrass (anfeltia Ahnfeltia tobuchiensis, laminaria Saccharina japonica, and eelgrass Zostera marina) is investigated. The enzyme preparation Viskoferm was the most effective for the mixture of these macrophytes, with

Blue Carbon Stocks Along the Pacific Coast of North America Are Mainly Driven by Local Rather Than Regional Factors. [PDF]
Abstract Coastal wetlands, including seagrass meadows, emergent marshes, mangroves, and temperate tidal swamps, can efficiently sequester and store large quantities of sediment organic carbon (SOC). However, SOC stocks may vary by ecosystem type and along environmental or climate gradients at different scales.

This study quantified the absorption ability of the seagrass Zostera japonica and the macroalgae Ulva pertusa for dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) (ammonium and nitrate) and dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) (urea and glycine) under different light ...

Sexual reproduction vs. clonal propagation in the recovery of a seagrass meadow after an extreme weather event [PDF]
Marine flowering plants can reproduce sexually and clonally, and the relative contribution of these two modes can be dependent on the environmental conditions.

Seasonal dynamics of trace elements in sediment and seagrass tissues in the largest Zostera japonica habitat, the Yellow River Estuary, northern China [PDF]
Trace element accumulation is an anthropogenic threat to seagrass ecosystems, which in turn may affect the health of humans who depend on these ecosystems. Trace element accumulation in seagrass meadows may vary temporally due to, e.g., seasonal patterns

Abstract Together with increasing environmental and anthropogenic pressures, pathogenic diseases are one of the important factors contributing to the ongoing decline of seagrass meadows worldwide; yet the diversity and ecology of the microorganisms acknowledged as seagrass parasites remain critically understudied.

Little is known about the seasonal dynamic of archaeal communities and their potential ecological functions in temperate seagrass ecosystems. In this study, seasonal changes in diversity, community structure, and potential metabolic functions of benthic ...

In flowering plants, pollen tube wall integrity is essential for double fertilization and seed formation. Loss of two pollen‐specific GLYCEROPHOSPHODIESTER PHOSPHODIESTERASE‐LIKE (GDPD‐LIKE) proteins in Arabidopsis results in male sterility, as pollen tubes burst immediately after germination, which may be caused by defective cellulose deposition in ...
