Abstract Seagrasses have gathered increasing attention due to their multifaceted ecological roles. Apart from significance, seagrasses potent antifungal properties, indicating potential for diverse applications. The efficacy of methanolic extracts derived five seagrass species (Cymodocea serrulata, Cymodocea rotundata, Halodule pinifolia, Halophila ovalis, and Syringodium isoetifolium) was assessed against selected pathogenic fungal strains using the agar well diffusion method. extract different exhibited notable activity Penicillium chrysogenum serrulata- 19.5mm pinifolia- 19.9mm ovalis- 10.3mm isoetifolium- 9.6mm). Least inhibition noted Candida albicans serrulate - 4.6 mm, rotundata 4.3mm pinifolia 6.5 mm). findings show that Enhalus acoroides at concentrations 500µg 1000µg remarkable almost all pathogens under study. samples exhibiting significant were subjected metabolite profiling GC-MS. A total 23 compounds identified in while 25 detected pinifolia. This study lays groundwork developing bioactive natural products with applications phytosanitary practices, offering additional advantages environmental safety economic viability. ecology significance ecosystems Rameshwaram Islands is also shown manuscript.

Microplastic (MP) contamination in freshwater systems is a prevalent and persistent environmental issue, yet their occurrence distribution remain poorly constrained. The present study examines the MPs abundance sediment water samples factors controlling Manasbal Lake, north-western (NW) Himalaya. Additionally, investigates relationship between heavy metals of sediment, as well potential interactions. counts lake surface varied from 840 nkg−1 to 4020 13 nL−1 89 nL−1, respectively. Lake exhibited spatial heterogeneity, with greatest observed eastern northeastern areas near inlets. Grain size land use appear collectively modulate variability sediments. Five main types were identified: beads/pellets, fragments, fibres, foams, films, beads being predominant type. Polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene are dominant constituents MPs, domestic sewage suggested source for lake. Furthermore, factor indicated high level lead sediments, while copper cobalt showed moderate inlet. SEM-EDS analysis illustrated presence toxic elements such Hg, Zn, Pb, Cr, Cd, Ni, Cu MPs. This expands baseline characterization enhances our understanding sources influencing MP distribution.

Seagrass meadows consist of angiosperms that thrive fully submerged in marine environments and form distinct ecosystems. They provide essential support for many organisms, acting as nursery grounds species economic importance. Beyond their ecological roles, seagrasses associated microbiomes are rich sources bioactive compounds with the potential to address numerous human healthcare challenges. Seagrasses produce molecules responding physical, chemical, biological environmental changes. These activities can treat microbe-borne diseases, skin diabetes, muscle pain, helminthic wounds. also offer secondary metabolites be used societal benefits. Despite results on presence derivatives, only a few studies have explored functional therapeutic properties from seagrass. With increasing spread epidemics pandemics worldwide, demand alternative drug discovery has become an indispensable area research. present reliable natural source, making this opportune moment further exploration pharmacological minimal side effects. This review provides comprehensive overview biochemical, phytochemical, biomedical applications globally over last two decades, highlighting prospective areas future research identifying applications.

Microplastic contamination in terrestrial environments has risen significantly, far exceeding levels marine environments. This shift underscores the concerning prevalence of microplastics (MPs) sewage sludge and soil, raising environmental apprehensions. Microplastics from various sources accumulate systems, consequently, soil have transformed into primary reservoirs microplastic pollutants, capable infiltrating aquatic ecosystems. While using to enrich provides nutrients, it simultaneously introduces substantial content, posing hazards. These can altering its properties potentially polluting deeper layers groundwater, compounding risks. review scrutinizes abundance, types, shapes evaluating their impacts suggesting future research directions. Statistical analysis reveals higher concentrations (271 Particles/kg dry weight) than (34.6 Particles/kg). Strong correlations between (R2 = 0.95) underscore significant influence application on The p-value 0.0001 indicates a correlation MP amounts sludge, while 0.47 suggests no association wastewater sludge. Research confirms that properties, microbial communities, characteristics, contingent attributes conditions.
