| taxonomic complexity in the halophyte limonium vulgare and related taxa (plumbaginaceae): insights from analysis of morphological, reproductive and karyological data. | limonium is a well-known example of a group of plants that is taxonomically complex due to certain biological characteristics that hamper species' delineation. the closely related polyploid species limonium vulgare mill., l. humile mill. and l. narbonense mill. are defined species and can be used for studying patterns of morphological and reproductive variation. the first two taxa are usually found in atlantic europe and the third in the mediterranean region, but a number of intermediate morphol ... | 2015 | 25261345 |
| aggregative responses of brent geese on salt marsh and their impact on plant community dynamics. | the aggregative responses and habitat preferences of a generalist herbivore, the dark-bellied brent goose branta bernicla bernicla, feeding on salt marshes are examined in relation to vegetation community characteristics and the abundances of individual plant species. in the autumn, feeding was strongly concentrated on the low marsh, which had the highest biomass of the preferred food plant, salicornia europaea. there was a strong aggregative response of the geese to the abundance of s. europaea ... | 1998 | 28307786 |
| responses of halophytes to high salinities and low water potentials. | the effects of nonsaline polyethylene glycol (peg)-6000 and saline seawater solutions of comparable osmotic potential on the concentrations of organic solutes and inorganic ions in the tissues of halophytes (plantago maritima l., triglochin maritima l., limonium vulgare mill., halimione portulacoides (l.) aell) have been investigated. studies were made to determine whether high salinities induce specific ion effects that are absent in plants grown in nonsaline solutions of comparable osmotic pot ... | 1979 | 16661119 |
| the role of herbicides in the erosion of salt marshes in eastern england. | laboratory studies and field trials were conducted to investigate the role of herbicides on saltmarsh vegetation, and their possible significance to saltmarsh erosion. herbicide concentrations within the ranges present in the aquatic environment were found to reduce the photosynthetic efficiency and growth of both epipelic diatoms and higher saltmarsh plants in the laboratory and in situ. the addition of sublethal concentrations of herbicides resulted in decreased growth rates and photosynthetic ... | 2003 | 12535594 |
| improved preparation and assay and some characteristics of cl--atpase activity from limonium vulgare. | we present a revised method for the preparation, storage and assay of the cl--atpase activity responsible for salt secretion in limonium vulgare. altering the centrifugation step improved the yield and linked-enzyme assay for adp provided a sensitive method for continuous monitoring of cl--atpase activity. the activity of untreated membranes was low but fairly stable. treatment with detergent gave strong stimulation of cl--atpase activity atp between 0.1 and 0.2 mm. cl- stimulated the activity u ... | 1981 | 6118178 |
