Abstract:The Halophila species exhibit complex characteristics due to their high degree of variation across different bioregions. This study delves into the intricate characteristics of Halophila species in the Tanjung Adang Laut shoal, Johor, Malaysia, and offers valuable insights through morphological and genetic evidence. Employing internal transcribed sequences (ITS), we investigated the phylogeny of Halophila species, revealing distinct clades for H. ovalis, H. major, H. spinulosa, and the newly recorded H. nippon… Show more
