Salicornia strobilacea (Synonym of Halocnemum strobilaceum) Grown under Different Tidal Regimes Selects Rhizosphere Bacteria Capable of Promoting Plant Growth (2016)
Journal Article
Marasco, R., Mapelli, F., Rolli, E., Mosqueira, M. J., Fusi, M., Bariselli, P., Reddy, M., Cherif, A., Tsiamis, G., Borin, S., & Daffonchio, D. (2016). Salicornia strobilacea (Synonym of Halocnemum strobilaceum) Grown under Different Tidal Regimes Selects Rhizosphere Bacteria Capable of Promoting Plant Growth. Frontiers in Microbiology, 7, https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2016.01286

Halophytes classified under the common name of salicornia colonize salty and coastal environments across tidal inundation gradients. To unravel the role of tide-related regimes on the structure and functionality of root associated bacteria, the rhizo...

Ecological status and sources of anthropogenic contaminants in mangroves of the Wouri River Estuary (Cameroon) (2016)
Journal Article
Fusi, M., Beone, G. M., Suciu, N. A., Sacchi, A., Trevisan, M., Capri, E., Daffonchio, D., Din, N., Dahdouh-Guebas, F., & Cannicci, S. (2016). Ecological status and sources of anthropogenic contaminants in mangroves of the Wouri River Estuary (Cameroon). Marine Pollution Bulletin, 109(2), 723-733. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2016.06.104

Mangroves are critically threatened by human activities, despite the important ecosystem functions and services they provide. Mangroves in Cameroon represent no exception to the worldwide trend of mangrove destruction, especially around Douala, on th...

The trade-off between heat tolerance and metabolic cost drives the bimodal life strategy at the air-water interface (2016)
Journal Article
Fusi, M., Cannicci, S., Daffonchio, D., Mostert, B., Pörtner, H., & Giomi, F. (2016). The trade-off between heat tolerance and metabolic cost drives the bimodal life strategy at the air-water interface. Scientific Reports, 6(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/srep19158

The principle of oxygen and capacity limitation of thermal tolerance in ectotherms suggests that the long-term upper limits of an organism's thermal niche are equivalent to the upper limits of the organism's functional capacity for oxygen provision t...
