Gibberellic acid and light effects on seed germination in the seagrass Zostera marina. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
Abstract Seagrass meadows have been heavily affected by human activities, with Zostera marina L. (Zosteraceae) being one of the most impacted species. Seed‐based methods are currently the preferred approach for their restoration, yet low germination rates and poor seedling establishment remain significant challenges.

Uncovering the Nanozostera japonica species complex suggests cryptic speciation and underestimated seagrass diversity. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary The importance of marine angiosperms, or seagrasses, as foundation species for marine coastal ecosystems is in marked contrast to their low species number of only 70 described taxa. Seagrass species tend to have very similar overall morphologies dictated by hydrodynamic forces of the ocean environment.

Copper sulphate treatment induces Heterozostera seed germination and improves seedling growth rates

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Evidence for seed germination and/or seedling recruitment in wild populations of the Southern Hemisphere seagrass H. nigricaulis are lacking. Additionally, seeds of H.

Climate adaptation and functional constraints drive pollen evolution in Apiales. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Pollen grains exhibit remarkable morphological diversity, shaped by selective pressures from environmental factors and mechanical constraints. Here, we investigate macroevolutionary patterns of pollen morphology in Apiales, an order of angiosperms with significant ecological and geographical diversity, to disentangle the roles of climate and ...

Seagrasses At The Islands Iturup And Urup Of Kuril Archipelago

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2023
The islands Iturup and Urup of Kuril Archipelago have been understudied in respect of seagrasses. The research aimed to fill this gap. In 2019 during the expedition of the Russian Geographical Society a part of the coastline has been surveyed by walking,

A revision of the genus Heterozostera (Zosteraceae) [PDF]

Aquatic Botany, 2005
A taxonomic study of the monotypic Heterozostera tasmanica (Martens ex Aschers.) Hartog concludes that four distinct taxa can be recognized within the genus. H. tasmanica is confined to Victoria and north and eastern Tasmania in Australia. The three new species have their own distributional ranges; Heterozostera nigricaulis is widely distributed in ...

Environmental DNA of aquatic macrophytes: The potential for reconstructing past and present vegetation and environments

Freshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 11, Page 1929-1950, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Environmental DNA is increasingly being used to reconstruct past and present biodiversity including from freshwater ecosystems. Macrophytes are especially good environmental indicators, thus their environmental DNA palaeorecord might shed light on past postglacial environments.
