• Alien species along the Italian coasts: an overview (2010, background): “Factors involved in the colonization success of Caulerpa spp. were studied, including tolerance to sedimentation (Piazzi et al. 2005), photo- (Raniello et al. 2006) and thermal (Flagella et al. 2008) acclimation, and allelopathy (Raniello et al. 2007).”
• Effects of seagrasses and algae of the Caulerpa family on hydrodynamics and particle-trapping rates (2010, background): “C. racemosa is known to tolerate increased sedimentation, and its growth even seems to be enhanced under these circumstances; the species is highly resistant to disturbances (Piazzi et al. 2005).”
• Impacts of marine invaders on biodiversity depend on trophic position and functional similarity (2014, background): “…Green alga Plant Sand 43 Mediterranean France Klein & Verlaque (2011) Caulerpa racemosa Green alga Plant Rocky subtidal 43 Mediterranean Italy Piazzi et al. (2005) Caulerpa racemosa Green alga Plant Rocky subtidal 43 Mediterranean Italy Piazzi & Ceccherelli (2006) Caulerpa racemosa Green…”
• A framework to study the context-dependent impacts of marine invasions (2011, background): “Invasion experiments that manipulated resource levels or abiotic conditions (orthogonally to invader manipulations) compared a single treatment to the control (e.g., with or without nutrients or sediment additions) (Ceccherelli and Sechi, 2002; Piazzi et al., 2005).”
• Deterioration of Sediment Quality in Seagrass Meadows (Posidonia oceanica) Invaded by Macroalgae (Caulerpa sp.) (2009, background): “For instance, C. racemosa negatively affected seagrass growth, whereas C. taxifolia had no measurable impact (Ceccherelli and Campo 2002; Ceccherelli and Sechi 2002; Piazzi et al. 2005; Piazzi and Ceccherelli 2006), and the mechanisms leading to the displacement ofP.”
• Concise review of the genus Caulerpa J.V. Lamouroux (2019, background): “The association with seagrasses is very common as Caulerpa are known to invade seagrass beds (Piazzi et al. 2005; Gab-Alla 2007).”
