[2] There are alternative uses for R. apiculata, such as to reinforce nets, ropes and fishing lines, transform into charcoal or trade for income.

[5] Due to the differences in morphology between R. apiculata with vs. without cork warts an added effect can be seen contributing to a reduced amount of light intake as the cross section for chlorophyll will be limited as a result.

[3] The presence of this adaptation is directly related to the environment in which its located as anoxic substrates will likely have this characteristic due to it being favourable to survivability.

Both types of roots are an adaptation undertaken due to environmental factors, designed to withstand/resist; large waves, rough tides, strong winds and tropical storms.

[8] Due to the habitat in which R. apiculata occurs, the roots possess a special trait designed to anchor the plant to the soil.

There is currently a positive correlation between R. apiculata and improving water quality through "filtration, adsorption, co-sedimentation, absorption, and microbial decomposition".

[14] As a result of water quality improvement, the likelihood of diseases caused by bacteria, parasites, fungi, and environmental pressure impacting both flora and fauna will be reduced.

[14] This impacts the aquatic animals positively as Dai et al. (2020) deduced that R. apiculata is able to change the composition of mud crab gut microbiota.

[14] This change will lead to the mud crab living longer and healthier with an added effect being on the crustacean's weight.

Viviparity occurs when the embryo grows through the seed coat whilst still attached to the plant prior to dropping into the water.

Currently there are plantations preexisting that allow for R. apiculata to be farmed and transformed into charcoal; resulting in renewable energy alongside potential income sources.

Only one tree was found on Panay Island in Western Visayas, while 12 were discovered in Masinloc, and they have an average diameter of 5.5 centimeters and height of 6 meters.
