Regional Genetic Structure in the Aquatic Macrophyte Ruppia cirrhosa Suggests Dispersal by Waterbirds [PDF]

, 2017
The evolutionary history of the genus Ruppia has been shaped by hybridization, polyploidisation and vicariance that have resulted in a problematic taxonomy. Recent studies provided insight into species circumscription, organelle takeover by hybridization,

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

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 ...

Surface chemical defence of the eelgrass Zostera marina against microbial foulers

Scientific Reports, 2019
Plants rely on both mechanical and chemical defence mechanisms to protect their surfaces against microorganisms. The recently completed genome of the eelgrass Zostera marina, a marine angiosperm with fundamental importance for coastal ecosystems, showed ...

The Advantaged Salt Inducible Suaeda salsa SsNRT2.5 and Its Promoter Significantly Enhance Nitrate Transport Efficiency and Salt Tolerance in Transgenic Arabidopsis and Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient nitrogen (N) uptake is critical for crop yield, but soil salinization inhibits plant nitrogen acquisition. In this study, the nitrate (NO3−) transporter gene SsNRT2.5 and its promoter from the halophyte Suaeda salsa was investigated to elucidate the functional role in NO3− transport under salinity and low NO3−–N conditions.

CO2 and nutrient-driven changes across multiple levels of organization in zostera noltii ecosystems [PDF]

, 2014
Increasing evidence emphasizes that the effects of human impacts on ecosystems must be investigated using designs that incorporate the responses across levels of biological organization as well as the effects of multiple stressors.

Benthic fauna dynamics following large‐scale seagrass restoration in an exposed environment

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Seagrass meadows are vital habitats, modifying hydrodynamic energy flows and sustaining biodiversity in the benthic environment. As such, there is a growing interest in using seagrass as a nature‐based solution for coastal adaptation. However, planting seagrass in hydrodynamically exposed environments is challenging, and the trajectories and timescales

Enhancing restoration of a generalist seagrass: seed processing and germination improvements for Ruppia maritima

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Seagrass meadows, composed of submersed aquatic vegetation (SAV), are changing due to climate change, increasing the need for adaptive restoration approaches such as incorporating native species that thrive under new environmental regimes.
