Comparative Chloroplast Genomes of Zosteraceae Species Provide Adaptive Evolution Insights Into Seagrass [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Seagrasses are marine flowering plants found in tropical and sub-tropical areas that live in coastal regions between the sea and land. All seagrass species evolved from terrestrial monocotyledons, providing the opportunity to study plant adaptation to ...

Sulfated Flavonoids from Phyllospadix (Zosteraceae) Taxa from Baja California, Mexico [PDF]
ACS OmegaSulfated flavonoids, a class of polyphenols integral to plant secondary metabolism and chemical defense, exhibit notable pharmacological potential. Seagrasses, marine angiosperms with critical ecological and socioeconomic roles, often accumulate these compounds in high concentrations.

Chloroplast genomic comparison provides insights into the evolution of seagrasses [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background Seagrasses are a polyphyletic group of monocotyledonous angiosperms that have evolved to live entirely submerged in marine waters. Thus, these species are ideal for studying plant adaptation to marine environments.

Unlocking seagrass germination: divergent roles of strigolactones and smoke-water in Zostera marina (Zosteraceae) [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceSeagrasses, such as Zostera marina, play a crucial role in coastal ecosystems, yet the hormonal regulation of their seed dormancy and germination remains poorly understood. Strigolactones (SL) and karrikins (KAR), two plant growth regulators (PGRs) known

Unconventional Germination in Terrestrial Plants: A Counterintuitive Case in Desiccation-Sensitive Garcinia aristata (Clusiaceae) Seeds Showing Seedling Growth Without Roots [PDF]
PlantsUnconventional germination, wherein shoots emerge and establish true leaves before the root emerges, is only found in Zosteraceae. In Garcinia, germination proceeds with the primary root emerging, followed by shoot emergence on the opposite side, but ...
