Mechanisms of Invasion Resistance of Aquatic Plant Communities. [PDF]
Invasive plant species are among the major threats to freshwater biodiversity. Few experimental studies have investigated whether native plant diversity can provide biotic resistance to invaders in freshwater ecosystems. At small spatial scales, invasion

Aquatic plant surface as a niche for methanotrophs [PDF]
This study investigated the potential local CH4 sink in various plant parts as a boundary environment of CH4 emission and consumption. By comparing CH4 consumption activities in cultures inoculated with parts from 39 plant species, we observed ...

Water Affects Morphogenesis of Growing Aquatic Plant Leaves. [PDF]
Lotus leaves floating on water usually experience short-wavelength edge wrinkling that decays toward the center, while the leaves growing above water normally morph into a global bending cone shape with long rippled waves near the edge.
