Roots are the first part of a plant to grow. All vascular plants have three types of root systems. Explore the root system, discover the function of roots and learn the types of roots only @ BYJU'S.
This research aims to determine the cause of the threat of mangrove types Xylocarpus moluccensis in several areas in North Maluku province. The research method using observation plots are laid out continuously, with a size of 20x20 m to the observation level of the tree; mangroves then ...
The Struthioniformes, also called the Ratites, are a diverse group of flightless birds. Most species are large and long-legged, but they range in size from the common ostrich at nine feet tall to the chicken-sized kiwis. Aside from the ostriches of Africa and the kiwis of New Zealand, t...
Mollies thrive in freshwater environments, but the fish are also common in saline habitats, like lagoons and brackish ditches. Some mollies live and breed in shallow marine environments, like harbors and waters around the roots of mangroves. Mollies are common in the wild. Colorful species of ...
This paper summarizes general anatomical features of such different nutritional organs as roots,stems and leaves on the basis of having systematically dissected different genera and species of mangroves,anddiscusses the relationship between the anatomical structure of mangroves and their ecological adaption....
Mangroves are forested wetlands found in bays, estuaries, and leeward sides of islands and peninsulas in tropical and subtropical regions. They provide ecosystem services by exporting organic matter to coastal food chains and by physically stabilizing coastlines. uplands and in the narrow lowlands bet...
Knowledge on the patterns of diversity and community composition of fungi associated with plant roots has been challenged also with the results from NGS. It has been concluded that nonclavicipitaceous fungal endophytes (class 2) are characterized by a lowin plantadiversity and a broad host range...

Mangrove, any of certain shrubs and trees that grow in dense thickets or forests along tidal estuaries, in salt marshes, and on muddy coasts and that characteristically have prop roots—i.e., exposed supporting roots. The term ‘mangrove’ also applies t
