Terrestrial Laser Scanning Reveals Seagrass Microhabitat Structure on a Tideflat

Remote Sensing, 2015
Local-scale environmental heterogeneity can provide microhabitats that influence the spatial distribution of competing species. Microhabitats may influence the distribution of seagrasses along elevation gradients, but difficulty measuring intertidal ...

Genome-wide transcriptomic responses of the seagrasses Zostera marina and Nanozostera noltii under a simulated heatwave confirm functional types [PDF]

, 2014
Genome-wide transcription analysis between related species occurring in overlapping ranges can provide insights into the molecular basis underlying different ecological niches. The co-occurring seagrass species, Zostera marina and Nanozostera noltii, are

Study on the effects of extreme climate and human activities on the growth mechanisms of Zostera japonica in the Yellow River estuary

Frontiers in Marine Science
Zostera japonica, as one of the major seagrasses in the Yellow River Estuary, plays a critical ecological role, particularly in providing habitat for marine organisms, stabilizing sediment, and contributing significantly to carbon sequestration.

Metatranscriptomics and Amplicon Sequencing Reveal Mutualisms in Seagrass Microbiomes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Terrestrial plants benefit from many well-understood mutualistic relationships with root- and leaf-associated microbiomes, but relatively little is known about these relationships for seagrass and other aquatic plants.

Functional diversity of mesograzers in an eelgrass-epiphyte system [PDF]

, 2008
Historically, small invertebrate grazers in marine plant communities have been considered to be a relatively homogeneous group in their impact on ecosystem processes.

Feeding Ecology of Sillago japonica in an Eelgrass (Zostera marina) Bed

Fisheries and aquatic sciences, 2004
Feeding habits of Sillago japonica collected from in an eelgrass (Zostera marina) bed in Jindong Bay, Korea were studied. S. japonica was a carnivore which consumed mainly gammarid amphipods, polychaetes, bivalves, caridean shrimps and crabs. Its diets also included a small amount of fishes, copepods and caprellid amphipods. The diet of S.

New evidence for habitat specific selection in Wadden Sea Zostera marina populations revealed by genome scanning using SNP and microsatellite markers [PDF]

, 2010
Eelgrass Zostera marina is an ecosystem-engineering species of outstanding importance for coastal soft sediment habitats that lives in widely diverging habitats.

Genetic structure of sugar kelp in the St. Lawrence Estuary and Gulf (Québec, Canada)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The sugar kelp, Saccharina latissima, is cultivated at low scale in Quebec, Canada, and current practice involves seeding meiospores or gametophyte stocks onto spools carrying twine and transferring these to a seaweed farm site. As the stocks can originate from locations spanning several hundreds of kilometers from the farm sites, such ...
