Mitochondrial genome evolution in Alismatales: Size reduction and extensive loss of ribosomal protein genes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The order Alismatales is a hotspot for evolution of plant mitochondrial genomes characterized by remarkable differences in genome size, substitution rates, RNA editing, retrotranscription, gene loss and intron loss.

Influence of neighboring plants on shading stress resistance and recovery of eelgrass, Zostera marina L. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Stressful environments may enhance the occurrence of facilitative interspecific interactions between plants. In several regions, Zostera marina occurs in mixed assemblages.

A Synthesis of Blue Carbon Stocks, Sources, and Accumulation Rates in Eelgrass (Zostera marina) Meadows in the Northeast Pacific

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, 2020
There is increasing urgency to implement climate change mitigation strategies that enhance greenhouse gas removal from the atmosphere and reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

Sexual reproduction vs. clonal propagation in the recovery of a seagrass meadow after an extreme weather event [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Marine flowering plants can reproduce sexually and clonally, and the relative contribution of these two modes can be dependent on the environmental conditions.

Arabinogalactan-proteins of Zostera marina L. contain unique glycan structures and provide insight into adaption processes to saline environments

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Seagrasses evolved from monocotyledonous land plants that returned to the marine habitat. This transition was accomplished by substantial changes in cell wall composition, revealing habitat-driven adaption to the new environment.

Nitrogen uptake and internal recycling in Zostera marina exposed to oyster farming: eelgrass potential as a natural biofilter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Oyster farming in estuaries and coastal lagoons frequently overlaps with the distribution of seagrass meadows, yet there are few studies on how this aquaculture practice affects seagrass physiology.

Rosmarinic Acid from Eelgrass Shows Nematicidal and Antibacterial Activities against Pine Wood Nematode and Its Carrying Bacteria

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2012
Pine wilt disease (PWD), a destructive disease for pine trees, is caused by the pine wood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and additional bacteria.

The light requirements for growth and photosynthesis in seagrasses with emphasis on Texas estuaries : a literature survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
During the last 20 years, seagrass communities throughout the world have experienced decreased productivity and distribution. These declines have often been attributed to decreased water transparency as a result of turbidity or shading by epiphytic algae.

Composition, distribution, and seasonal dynamics of vegetation in the estuaries of the Olga Bay (central Primorye)

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2015
Twenty-one species of water plants are found in the Avvakumovka River estuary and fourteen species - in the Olga River estuary in 3 surveys conducted in May, July, and September of 2012.

Effects of Different Prolonged Light Durations on Survival, Growth and Physiology of the Eelgrass Zostera marina

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Prolongation of light duration is one of the effective methods to improve the current seagrass propagation technique. We subjected plants of eelgrass Zostera marina to different prolonged light durations [0 (control), 2, 4, 6, 8 h d−1] for 6 weeks under ...
