Diferencias en las características foliares de Rhizophora mangle Linn. en dos zonas del manglar de Tuxpan, Veracruz

Abstract: Los manglares son ecosistemas importantes que prestan innumerables servicios ambientales. Sin embargo, pese a su importancia y a la protección de distintas normas nacionales e internacionales, la tasa de pérdida de estos ecosistemas es alta, en gran medida por diferentes agentes de contaminación antropogénica. Se considera que las hojas son los órganos más sensibles de las plantas, así, éstas pueden servir como indicadoras de contaminación ambiental debido a las modificaciones morfo-anatómicas que se generan p… Show more

“…Our results are consistent with those of Poukhabbaz [50], who found that leaf area decreased in oriental plane trees (Platanus orientalis) in urban areas, due to atmospheric pollution, compared with trees in rural areas in India. González [22] suggested that the reduced development of R. mangle leaves adjacent to the Tampamachoco Lagoon may have resulted from the constant anthropogenic impacts in this area, along with atmospheric pollution and the presence of heavy metals.…”

“…In agreement with the conservation biology concept, umbrella species serve as proxies for entire communities and ecosystems, so that the whole system is conserved when they are preserved. Preliminary studies suggest a significant difference in the leaf area of R. mangle in mangroves adjacent to a thermoelectric plant compared to areas away from these facilities [22]. Several studies report the buildup of non-nutritive metals in mangrove sediments and their bioaccumulation in aerial tissues.…”
