Overview

Research shows varying transplantation methods shape bacterial communities in seagrass, suggesting improved restoration strategies.

Key Points

  • Transplantation methods significantly influence bacterial communities associated with Posidonia oceanica roots.
  • Iron staples promoted microbial assemblages resembling natural meadows, enhancing recruitment of key functional bacteria.
  • Limited sediment contact in elevated substrates delayed key bacteria establishment, impacting restoration success.
  • Incorporating microbiome considerations could improve the long-term resilience of seagrass restoration efforts.
