For the first time, biochemical parameters were used as early indicators of transplant\u2019s health. In this study, two seagrass species were transplanted using two distinct modalities per species. Zostera marina was transplanted in bundles of five and ten shoots and Cymodocea nodosa was transplanted with original sediment in trays and as bare rhizome segments of at least three shoots. Oxidative stress, antioxidant activity, photosynthetic pigment and non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) content in leaves and rhizomes were investigated before transplant and four weeks after transplant. Results revealed some significant method-specific early biochemical responses to transplant for C. nodosa. Cymodocea nodosa shoots transplanted in segments showed radical shifts in NSC storage and chlorophyll content whereas antioxidant activity was further triggered in C. nodosa transplanted in trays. Shoot density may be an important factor to consider when selecting the best transplant method for Z. marina, but no differences were observed in the early biochemical parameters measured. The results of this short-term biochemical monitoring suggest that transplanting C. nodosa in trays could be less disruptive for the plant\u2019s biochemistry than bare-rhizome methods. This study provides insights into biochemical responses post-transplantation and emphasizes the need for adaptable restoration strategies. Coupled with transplant survival, morphological parameters and long-term monitoring, biochemical metrics can be used as a sensitive tool to monitor short-term responses in seagrass meadows.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/conphys\/coag071","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,4]],"date-time":"2026-09-04T11:07:36Z","timestamp":1788520056000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Biochemical parameters as early indicators of seagrass transplant\u2019s health"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-2061-3388","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alize","family":"Deguette","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Ci\u00eancias do Mar do Algarve (CCMAR\/CIMAR LA), Campus de Gambelas, Universidade do Algarve , Faro 8005-139 ,","place":["Portugal"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6898-4742","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Filipe","family":"Parreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Ci\u00eancias do Mar do Algarve (CCMAR\/CIMAR LA), Campus de Gambelas, Universidade do Algarve , Faro 8005-139 ,","place":["Portugal"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7861-4366","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rui","family":"Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Ci\u00eancias do Mar do Algarve (CCMAR\/CIMAR LA), Campus de Gambelas, Universidade do Algarve , Faro 8005-139 ,","place":["Portugal"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0922-0259","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Isabel","family":"Barrote","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Ci\u00eancias do Mar do Algarve (CCMAR\/CIMAR LA), Campus de Gambelas, Universidade do Algarve , Faro 8005-139 ,","place":["Portugal"]},{"name":"Faculdade de Ci\u00eancias e Tecnologia, Campus de Gambelas, Universidade do Algarve , Faro 8005-139 ,","place":["Portugal"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7211-1661","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jo\u00e3o","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Ci\u00eancias do Mar do Algarve (CCMAR\/CIMAR LA), Campus de Gambelas, Universidade do Algarve , Faro 8005-139 ,","place":["Portugal"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026091410455207900_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"53","DOI":"10.1002\/9781119552154.ch3","volume-title":"Protective Chemical Agents in the Amelioration of Plant Abiotic Stress: Biochemical and Molecular Perspectives","author":"Ahmad","year":"2020"},{"key":"2026091410455207900_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"110578","DOI":"10.1016\/j.marpolbul.2019.110578","article-title":"Taking advantage of seagrass recovery potential to develop novel and effective meadow rehabilitation methods","volume":"149","author":"Alagna","year":"2019","journal-title":"Mar Pollut Bull"},{"key":"2026091410455207900_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"397","DOI":"10.1016\/j.aquabot.2008.04.012","article-title":"Patch dynamics of the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica: implications for recolonisation process","volume":"89","author":"Almela","year":"2008","journal-title":"Aquat Bot"},{"key":"2026091410455207900_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-319-91698-9","volume-title":"Blue Carbon: Coastal Sequestration for Climate Change Mitigation","author":"Alongi","year":"2018"},{"key":"2026091410455207900_ref5","volume-title":"Aspectos Geomorfol\u00f3gicos, Ecol\u00f3gicos e Socioecon\u00f3micos da Ria Formosa","author":"Andrade","year":"1985"},{"key":"2026091410455207900_ref6","first-page":"153","volume-title":"Photosynthesis.
