Foundation species support fauna across multiple trophic levels via trophic and non‐trophic mechanisms

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 293-307, January 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Foundation species, such as seagrasses, trees, and corals, form the biotic basis for many ecosystems. They engineer local habitats and can support many faunal species through trophic (e.g. providing feeding grounds) or non‐trophic (e.g.

Glycomolecules: from “sweet immunity” to “sweet biostimulation”?

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 176, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract Climate changes and environmental contaminants are daunting challenges that require an urgent change from current agricultural practices to sustainable agriculture. Biostimulants are natural solutions that adhere to the principles of organic farming and are believed to have low impacts on the environment and human health.

Shellfish aquaculture farms as foraging habitat for nearshore fishes and crabs

Marine and Coastal Fisheries, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract Objective Oyster reefs across North America have declined precipitously over the past 140 years. In Washington State, Olympia oyster Ostrea lurida reefs historically provided water filtration and nearshore structural habitat for fishes and invertebrates, but this species is now functionally extinct across its historical range.

Factors controlling the vertical zonation of the intertidal seagrass, Zostera japonica in its native range in the northwestern Pacific

, 2020
The desiccation tolerance of the intertidal seagrass Zostera japonica has been demonstrated in a number of studies; however, the factors limiting expansion of intertidal seagrass species into subtidal zones remain controversial.

Environmental drivers of flowering in the genus Zostera and spatio‐temporal variability of Zostera muelleri flowering in Australasia

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract Seed‐based seagrass restoration strategies demand precise understanding of the environmental drivers influencing flowering. Flowering varies across diverse spatial and temporal scales, yet environmental drivers' effects on these dynamics have received less attention. Lack of knowledge regarding this life‐history stage limits the advancement of

Improved production of the antidiabetic metabolite montbretin A in Nicotiana benthamiana: discovery, characterization, and use of Crocosmia shikimate shunt genes

The Plant Journal, Volume 117, Issue 3, Page 766-785, February 2024.
SUMMARY The plant‐specialized metabolite montbretin A (MbA) is being developed as a new treatment option for type‐2 diabetes, which is among the ten leading causes of premature death and disability worldwide. MbA is a complex acylated flavonoid glycoside produced in small amounts in below‐ground organs of the perennial plant Montbretia (Crocosmia ...

Characterization of microsatellite loci in the dwarf eelgrass Zostera noltii (Zosteraceae) and cross-reactivity with Z-japonica

, 2004
Zostera noltii is an important species of eelgrass occurring along European, north African, Mediterranean, Black Sea and Azov Sea coasts. Nine microsatellite loci were developed and no linkage disequilibrium was observed. Cross-amplification was observed

Field experiment of Zostera japonica transplanting using mattress method in Ago Bay

PROCEEDINGS OF COASTAL ENGINEERING, JSCE, 2008
On environmental restoration of coastal zone, it should be developed conservation and transplantation techniques of seagrass. Transplanting shoot is applied for seagarss which propagates by growth of own root. However, since the method takes heavy diving works, simple and convenient method is required practically.
