Mangrove carbon sink. Do burrowing crabs contribute to sediment carbon storage? Evidence from a Kenyan mangrove system (2013)
Journal Article
Andreetta, A., Fusi, M., Cameldi, I., Cimò, F., Carnicelli, S., & Cannicci, S. (2014). Mangrove carbon sink. Do burrowing crabs contribute to sediment carbon storage? Evidence from a Kenyan mangrove system. Journal of Sea Research, 85, 524-533. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.seares.2013.08.010

Mangrove ecosystems are acknowledged as a significant carbon reservoir, with a potential key role as carbon sinks. Little however is known on sediment/soil capacity to store organic carbon and the impact of benthic fauna on soil organic carbon (SOC)... Read More about Mangrove carbon sink.

Biogeography of planktonic bacterial communities across the whole Mediterranean Sea (2013)
Journal Article
Mapelli, F., Varela, M. M., Barbato, M., Alvariño, R., Fusi, M., Álvarez, M., Merlino, G., Daffonchio, D., & Borin, S. (2013). Biogeography of planktonic bacterial communities across the whole Mediterranean Sea. Ocean Science, 9(4), 585-595. https://doi.org/10.5194/os-9-585-2013

Bacterial population distribution in the Mediterranean Sea has been mainly studied by considering small geographical areas or specific phylogenetic groups. The present study is a molecular microbiology investigation aimed to identify the environmenta... Read More about Biogeography of planktonic bacterial communities across the whole Mediterranean Sea.

Plant Growth Promotion Potential Is Equally Represented in Diverse Grapevine Root-Associated Bacterial Communities from Different Biopedoclimatic Environments (2013)
Journal Article
Marasco, R., Rolli, E., Fusi, M., Cherif, A., Abou-Hadid, A., El-Bahairy, U., Borin, S., Sorlini, C., & Daffonchio, D. (2013). Plant Growth Promotion Potential Is Equally Represented in Diverse Grapevine Root-Associated Bacterial Communities from Different Biopedoclimatic Environments. BioMed Research International, 2013, Article 491091. https://doi.org/10.1155/2013/491091

Plant-associated bacteria provide important services to host plants. Environmental factors such as cultivar type and pedoclimatic conditions contribute to shape their diversity. However, whether these environmental factors may influence the plant gro...

Biomonitoring study of an estuarine coastal ecosystem, the Sacca di Goro lagoon, using Ruditapes philippinarum (Mollusca: Bivalvia) (2013)
Journal Article
Sacchi, A., Mouneyrac, C., Bolognesi, C., Sciutto, A., Roggieri, P., Fusi, M., Beone, G. M., & Capri, E. (2013). Biomonitoring study of an estuarine coastal ecosystem, the Sacca di Goro lagoon, using Ruditapes philippinarum (Mollusca: Bivalvia). Environmental Pollution, 177, 82-89. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2013.01.042

Coastal lagoons are constantly subjected to releases of chemical pollutants, and so organisms may be exposed to such toxicants. This study investigated through a multivariate approach the physiological status of bivalve Ruditapes philippinarum, farme...
