Goal
Technique: aquaculture and transplanting (seagrass seeds, seedlings or rhizomes) A novel aquaculture system for producing plants (mother plants and cuttings) from a limited number of seagrass seeds was tested. The ability of transplanted cuttings to survive and grow in the natural habitat was also evaluated. Transplant survival and shoot production were monitored every month during the first growing season and then at the end of the experiment. Fragments (32) of uniform size (approximately 7 cm i No spatial extent reported. Reported project duration 1,0 year(s). Average survival 85,0% as reported.
