Abstract Background The endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile colonizes soft
bottoms producing highly productive meadows that play a crucial role in coastal ecosystems …

Growth and distribution of seagrasses is closely related to undersea light quality and
intensity. Currently, several factors linked to anthropogenic pressure, such as increased …

Posidonia oceanica meadows are among the most valuable coastal systems in the
Mediterranean basin. They provide nursery and forage areas for many commercially …

The phenolic fingerprint of the leaves of Posidonia oceanica collected from four different
Mediterranean Sea regions was determined using a panel of analytical techniques. It was …

There is little research on the distribution and evolution of tannin cells, specialized in the
sequestration of phenolic compounds, in the leaves of P. oceanica, depending on the …

In shallow coastal waters, seagrass and macroalgae occur together but under eutrophic
conditions, bloom-forming algae can take over seagrasses causing an irreversible regime …

Posidonia oceanica L., one of nine Posidonia species belongs to family Posidoniaceae, is
completely restricted to the White Mediterranean Sea. The chemical components of the …
