Electrophysiological Regulation of Nutrient Transport in Mangrove Species Under Salinity Stress: A Comparative Physiological Analysis of <i>Aegiceras corniculatum</i> (L.) Blanco and <i>Kandelia obovata</i> Sheue, H.Y. Liu & J.W.H. Yong.

ABSTRACT: Salinity is a major environmental constraint that influences nutrient acquisition and internal transport in coastal plant species. However, the electrophysiological mechanisms underlying nutrient flow regulation in mangroves remain poorly understood. This study investigates the active transport flow of nutrients (NAF) and nutrient plunder capacity (NPC) in two ecologically significant mangrove species, Aegiceras corniculatum (L.) Blanco (A. corniculatum) and Kandelia obovata Sheue, H.Y. Liu & J.W.H. Yong (K. obovata), using intrinsic electrophysiological leaf traits including inherent impedance (IZ), inherent capacitive reactance (IXC), inherent inductive reactance (IXL), and inherent capacitance (IC). A randomized block design was employed using three different
