Control of algal growth by macrophytes and macrophyte-extracted bioactive compounds
Algae (Selenastrum capricornutum and Microcystis aeruginosa) were respectively assayed in a mixed-culture system using various concentrations of macrophytes obtained from Egeria densa, Cabomba caroliniana, and Myriophyllum spicatum in order to evaluate their inhibitory effects on algal growth due to possible secretion of anti-algal bioactive compounds ...

The impact of epiphytic algae on the foliar traits of Potamogeton perfoliatus [PDF]
This study investigated the effect of epiphyton on foliar traits of a submerged rooted macrophyte, Potamogeton perfoliatus, in a shallow freshwater lake, highlighting its influence on the ecological dynamics of littoral zones in aquatic ecosystems.
