| dc.description.abstract | Ocean acidification and marine heatwaves are key drivers of marine ecosystem changes that can interact with one another and influence marine organisms. Seagrasses, including the long-lived Posidonia oceanica that is endemic to the Mediterranean Sea, are widely distributed along coastal habitats, forming highly valuable underwater meadows. The germination and survival of the early life stages of P. oceanica are strongly affected by environmental changes. To assess the impact of warming and acidification on its future, we conducted a multifactorial experiment in which P. oceanica seedlings were grown under ocean acidification conditions for 6 months and then exposed to a seawater warming event. Seedling performance was investigated by analysing photo-physiology, antioxidant capacity, energetic metabolism, and transcriptomic profiles. A weighted gene correlation network analysis was used to integrate phenotypic plant traits with transcriptomic results to identify central genes involved in plant responses to ocean acidification and temperature exposure. Results demonstrated that prolonged ocean acidification exposure enhances P. oceanica seedling resilience to marine heatwaves. Specifically, seedlings regulated their antioxidant systems and transcriptomic machinery to better cope with thermal stress. Under current CO2 concentrations, elevated temperatures induced stress in P. oceanica seedlings, impacting photosynthesis and respiration. However, ocean acidification could mitigate the impact of warming in the future, enhancing the resilience to global stressors of P. oceanica. | eng |
