Role of macrophyte life forms in driving periphytic microalgal assemblages in a Brazilian reservoir

Journal of Limnology, 2015
Macrophytes play several roles in aquatic ecosystems, including the provision of habitat for many aquatic organisms, especially the periphyton. The aims of this study were to characterize the structure of periphytic microalgal assemblages on different ...

Seasonal biodiversity and ecological studies on the epiphytic microalgae communities in polluted and unpolluted aquatic ecosystem at Assiut, Egypt [PDF]

, 2017
A qualitative and quantitative study on epiphytic microalgae was carried out seasonally from November 2015 to August 2016 to follow up their community structures on aquatic macrophytes related to some physico-chemical properties of two polluted

Macrophyte Coverage Increases Largemouth Bass Abundance and Trophy Potential: A Resist‐Accept‐Direct (RAD) Application for Aquatic Plant Management in North‐Temperate Lakes

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries
Climate change is altering north‐temperate lake ecosystems through warming and increased aquatic macrophyte production. These changes have the potential to cause ecosystem shifts that challenge status quo fisheries management and require the adoption of ...

The influence of fish farming intensification on taxonomic richness and biomass density of macrophyte-dwelling invertebrates in French fishponds

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
Fishponds are man-made ecosystems where fish farming may strongly interfere with biodiversity. Intensified practices could be suspected to have a negative impact on animal and plant communities.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Buried alive: Aquatic plants survive in ‘ghost ponds’ under agricultural fields [PDF]

, 2017
The widespread loss of wetlands due to agricultural intensification has been highlighted as a major threat to aquatic biodiversity. However, all is not lost as we reveal that the propagules of some aquatic species could survive burial under agricultural ...

Does Long-Term Macrophyte Management in Lakes Affect Biotic Richness and Diversity? [PDF]

, 2005
We hypothesize that the richness and diversity of the biota in Lake Moraine (42°50’47”N, 75°31’39”W) in New York have been negatively impacted by 60 years of macrophyte and algae management to control Eurasian watermilfoil ( Myriophyllum spicatum L.

Investigating periphyton biofilm response to changing phosphorus concentrations in UK rivers using within-river flumes [PDF]

, 2010
The excessive growth of benthic algal biofilms in UK rivers is a widespread problem, resulting in loss of plant communities and wider ecological damage.

Ivermectin Toxicity in Humans and Animals: Clinical Spectrum, Mechanisms, and Management

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ivermectin is a widely used macrocyclic lactone with established efficacy against a broad range of parasitic infections in humans and animals and a long‐standing reputation for clinical safety. However, increasing evidence indicates that ivermectin can produce clinically relevant toxicity under specific conditions, particularly involving the ...
