Local ciliate communities associated with aquatic macrophytes

International microbiology : the official journal of the Spanish Society for Microbiology, 2014
This study, based within the catchment area of the River Frome, an important chalk stream in the south of England, compared ciliated protozoan communities associated with three species of aquatic macrophyte common to lotic habitats: Ranunculus ...

Herbicides for Rooted Aquatic Macrophytes [PDF]

Planta Daninha, 2019
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of glyphosate, 2,4-D, and diquat to control the aquatic macrophytes Brachiaria subquadripara, Hedychium coronarium, and Myriophyllum aquaticum under greenhouse conditions. The following herbicides and doses were used: glyphosate at 240, 720, 1,680, 2,640, 3,600, and 4,320 g a.e.

<i>P.I. Charter</i>: A Shiny Application for Collecting, Cleaning, Compiling, and Communicating Point-Intercept Aquatic Plant Data. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
When ecological data are collected by many entities for different purposes, they can be difficult to locate and integrate; web applications can address this by standardizing submission, automating cleaning, and incentivizing contributions. We present P.I.

Effects of Different Types of Agricultural Land Use on the Occurrence of Common Aquatic Bugs (Nepomorpha, Heteroptera) in Habitats with Slow Flowing Water in Bulgaria, Southeast Europe

Diversity, 2023
Agricultural activities can have a significant impact on aquatic organisms, including aquatic insects. Most of the aquatic Heteroptera are known as moderately tolerant to low oxygen and high nutrient concentrations.

Phytoremediation Potential of Aquatic Macrophyte, Azolla [PDF]

AMBIO, 2011
Aquatic macrophytes play an important role in the structural and functional aspects of aquatic ecosystems by altering water movement regimes, providing shelter to fish and aquatic invertebrates, serving as a food source, and altering water quality by regulating oxygen balance, nutrient cycles, and accumulating heavy metals.

Turbidity, Waterfowl Herbivory, and Propagule Banks Shape Submerged Aquatic Vegetation in Ponds

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The aquatic vegetation in nutrient-rich shallow lakes and ponds is structured by the interplay of multiple biotic and abiotic drivers. We tested the contribution of the macrophyte propagule bank and the delayed as well as direct impact of waterbirds on ...
