“…Morphometric changes of seagrasses can be used as an indicator of changes in the environmental variables as well (Peralta et al, 2005). In our study, leaf length of Z. marina tended to increase with U. pertusa addition, which might indicate shading stress.…”

“…Recent studies on other seagrass species have linked variation in morphology to environmental gradients (Irlandi et al 2002, Miller et al 2005, Peralta et al 2005. Thalassia testudinum exposed to increased freshwater runoff (decreased salinity, increased turbidity and decreased light) showed reduced biomass, shoot weight, areal production and leaf width (Irlandi et al 2002).…”

“…Thalassia testudinum exposed to increased freshwater runoff (decreased salinity, increased turbidity and decreased light) showed reduced biomass, shoot weight, areal production and leaf width (Irlandi et al 2002). Zostera noltii Hornemann produced small narrow leaves with long internodes in response to increased hydrodynamic flow following the creation of an artificial inlet (Peralta et al 2005). A study of Z. tasmanica den Hartog across an environmental gradient of increased turbidity, increased water column chl a and decreased light showed reduced leaf numbers per shoot, leaf weight per shoot, shoot length and internode distance, while overall seagrass cover and shoot density also decreased (Miller et al 2005).…”

“…Specimens of Zostera noltii were collected from an intertidal sandy meadow at Santibañez (Cadiz Bay Natural Park,36°32 0 N, 6°15 0 W) in spring 2004 during the onset of its maximum growth phase (Brun et al, 2003a;Peralta et al, 2005). Plants were gathered carefully to keep below-ground parts intact and transported to the laboratory in an ice-chest.…”
