Colonization potential of the genus Ulva (Chlorophyta, Ulvales) in Comodoro Rivadavia Harbor (Chubut, Argentina)

Temporal and spatial changes in the coverage of five Ulva L. species (U. prolifera O.F. Müller, U. intestinalis L., U. hookeriana (Kützing) Hayden et al., U. compressa L. and U. linza L.) were analyzed on rocky substrata experimentally immersed in Comodoro Rivadavia Harbor (Argentina). Colonization...

(U. prolifera O.F. Müller, U. intestinalis L., U. hookeriana (Kützing) Hayden et al., U. compressa L. y U. linza L.) sobre sustratos rocosos sumergidos experimentalmente en el puerto de Comodoro Rivadavia (Argentina). Se estudió la colonización durante un periodo anual en tres niveles: intermareal superior, intermareal medio y submareal. La cobertura fue significativamente mayor en los niveles intermareal medio y submareal que en el intermareal superior, en donde todas las especies de Ulva estuvieron ausentes. Los cambios estacionales también fueron significativos: la cobertura en verano y primavera fue significativamente mayor que en otoño e invierno. La mayoría de las especies presentaron una gran variabilidad espacial entre réplicas sumergidas en un mismo nivel y estación. Los patrones de zonación dentro del puerto difirieron de los observados en áreas naturales, probablemente a causa del bajo grado de exposición al oleaje y su interacción con procesos de herbivoría y desecación. Los patrones de colonización observados en este estudio indican segregación de nicho en especies estrechamente emparentadas del género Ulva. 2005-03-06 2021-06-03T03:54:52Z 2021-06-03T03:54:52Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Peer-reviewed Article Artículo Arbitrado https://www.cienciasmarinas.com.mx/index.php/cmarinas/article/view/37 10.7773/cm.v31i4.37 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/7314 eng https://www.cienciasmarinas.com.mx/index.php/cmarinas/article/view/37/19 application/pdf Iniversidad Autónoma de Baja California Ciencias Marinas; Vol. 31 No. 4 (2005); 719-725 Ciencias Marinas; Vol. 31 Núm. 4 (2005); 719-725 2395-9053 0185-3880
