Abstract
Growth and development of Lycium carolinianum was quantified in a Texas estuary. Flowering and leaf production were positively correlated with water depth and pore-water salinity. Fruit production varied greatly across study years. No spatio-temporal pattern of plant biomass was observed.Suggested Citation
