Effects of predation on Zostera marina L. seed abundance
Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1996 Predator effects on Zostera marina L. seed abundance were studied in the York River, VA, USA, using enclosure and exclosure caging experiments. Seeds were placed in cages in two concurrent experiments. The first experiment was a predator exclosure experiment to test the effects of excluding predators, using a full predator exclosure cage, a partial ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Na+ can substitute K+ under K+ deficiency conditions, which is denominated as beneficial Na+. Despite its relevance at the physiological level and its interest in agriculture, the mechanisms allowing its uptake and use by plants remain unclear.

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.Seagrass flowering underpins seed‐based restoration and is governed by the interaction of multiple abiotic and biotic drivers operating across a range of temporal and spatial scales. In New Zealand/Aotearoa, flowering was historically considered rare, but emerging evidence indicates it is more widespread than previously recognised, creating new ...

Seed-bank development, germination and early seedling survival of two seagrass species from The Netherlands: Zostera marina L. and Zostera noltii hornem [PDF]
, 1987 Flowering and seed-bank development of annual Zostera marina L. and perennial Z. noltii hornem. were studied in the Zandkreek (S.W. Netherlands). Flowering of Z. noltii started at the end of June and continued until the end of September. A maximum of ca.

F1000Research, 2021 Background: Seagrasses (Alismatales) are the only fully marine angiosperms. Zostera marina (eelgrass) plays a crucial role in the functioning of coastal marine ecosystems and global carbon sequestration.

Connecting the distribution and diversification of marine plants
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.Integration of the evolutionary history with distribution of extant species is necessary to explain present‐day diversity, particularly for ‘foundation' species, such as seagrasses, which create habitats of socioecological relevance. Here, we resolved if varying evolutionary history of seagrass families has imprinted the distribution ranges of extant ...

Pre-treatment of zostera marina and ulva armoricana for production of bioethanol and biogas [PDF]
, 2009 The seaweed Zostera marina and the alga Ulva armoricana have been investigated to test the effect of the steam explosion treatment on their conversion in biofuels, namely ethanol and methane. Zostera has been collected on the beach of Arcachon while Ulva

Pacific oysters are a sink and a potential source of the eelgrass pathogen, Labyrinthula zosterae
Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2022 Oyster aquaculture and seagrasses often co-occur and are each vital to the ecological and economic value of coastal ecosystems. Global declines in seagrasses, including Zostera marina, have recently been observed in association with multiple factors ...
