Multi‐Omics Unveils the Dual‐Life of the Aquatic Plant Potamogeton nodosus

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Heterophylly, characterized by distinct leaf morphologies, is an adaptive strategy evolved by some aquatic plants to cope with the contrasting environments in which they grow. It is shaped by environmental factors and by hormones, particularly abscisic and gibberellic acids.
