Does previous disease exposure influence the temperature-dependent disease response of a m — NSF Award to University of California
Seagrasses are marine flowering plants that provide important benefits, including protection from shoreline erosion and creating habitats that support ecologically and commercially important marine species. They are often infected with a slime-mold pathogen that creates dark brown lesions on the plants, called eelgrass

| Abstract | Seagrasses are marine flowering plants that provide important benefits, including protection from shoreline erosion and creating habitats that support ecologically and commercially important marine species. They are often infected with a slime-mold pathogen that creates dark brown lesions on the plants, called eelgrass wasting disease. The effects of this disease range from the die-off of entire meadows to smaller declines in plant growth, with the reasons for this variation generally unknown. T |
