摘要: Photosynthetic and growth responses were assessed in Zostera marina L. transplants within beyond the natural extent of an eelgrass meadow Great Harbor, Woods Hole, MA. Transplant survival rapid inshore shallow edge (0.5 0.8 m water depth) indicated a periodic disturbance factor maintaining meadow. mortality, reduced growth, negative carbon balance transplanted offshore deep (7 10m) supported hypothesis light-limited regions Harbor Photoadaptive occurred along depth gradient, both photosynthesis used to assess genetic vs. phenotypic components response gradient. Reciprocal between (1.3 m) (5.5 areas photosynthetic primarily result habitat rather than differentiation
