Coordination of hydraulic thresholds across roots, stems, and leaves of two co-occurring mangrove species.

Mangroves are frequently inundated with saline water and have evolved different anatomical and physiological mechanisms to filter and, in some species, excrete excess salt from the water they take up. Because salts impose osmotic stress, interspecific differences in salt tolerance and salt management strategy may influence physiological responses to drought throughout the entire plant hydraulic pathway, from roots to leaves. Here, we characterized embolism vulnerability simultaneously in leaves, stems, and roots of seedlings of two mangrove species (Avicennia marina and Bruguiera gymnorrhiza) along with turgor-loss points in roots and leaves and xylem anatomical traits.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of mangrove L.) Lam. ex Savigny.

The chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of was characterized. The cp genome length was 163,795 bp in length, with a GC content of 35.3%, containing a large single copy (LSC) of 90,830 bp, a small single copy (SSC) of 20,207 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,379 bp.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of mangrove Blume (Rhizophoraceae).

The chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of was characterized. The cp genome length was 164,343 bp in length, containing a typical structure of a large single copy (LSC) of 93,155 bp, a small single copy (SSC) of 19,376 bp, and two inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,906 bp, with a GC content of 34.9%.
