Consumption of submerged aquatic macrophytes by rudd (scardinius erythrophthalmus L.) in New Zealand [PDF]
, 2002 In experiments in New Zealand, rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus L.) of 108–277mm fork length (FL) ate a wide range of native and introduced submerged aquatic macrophytes in captivity and in the field.

Impact of Anthropogenic Activities and Climate Change on the Wetlands in the North-West of Madagascar. [PDF]
Plant Environ InteractABSTRACT Macrophytes are vulnerable to various factors in their natural ecosystems, including climatic, ecological, and anthropogenic changes. This study aims to document how these factors influence floristic composition. Four sites were investigated in the Boeny Region of northwest Madagascar: Ambatoboeny, Marovoay, Ankarafantsika National Park, and ...

The Multiple Roles of Genetics on Freshwater Macrophyte Functional Traits in the Interplay With the Environment: A Review. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis review examines how genetic and environmental factors jointly shape functional trait variation in aquatic plants. By synthesizing the literature from the last fifteen years, we analyze the roles of genetic diversity, epigenetic variation, genome size, and gene expression in relation to phenotypic plasticity, natural selection, and genetic drift ...

Effect of removal of free-floating macrophytes on zooplankton habitat in shallow wetland
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2014 Submerged macrophytes improve the structural heterogeneity of microhabitats in aquatic ecosystems, often providing an important habitat for zooplankton.

Drivers of planktonic chlorophyll a in pampean shallow lakes
Ecological Indicators, 2023 Although agricultural intensification has been linked with the increment of lake eutrophication and shallow lake research has demonstrated the importance of submerged macrophytes for maintaining water clarity, less is known about the role of macrophytes ...

Macrophytes as bioindicators [PDF]
River Systems, 2003 Submerged macrophytes respond to changes in the nutrient concentrations in their environment. In contrast to diatoms e.g., submerged macrophytes are capable of taking up nutrients from both the sediment pore water and the overlying water. Therefore, macrophytes can provide a more comprehensive assessment of river ecosystems. Two methods using submerged

Effects of aquatic vegetation type on denitrification [PDF]
, 2011 In a microcosm 15N enrichment experiment we tested the effect of floating vegetation (Lemna sp.) and submerged vegetation (Elodea nuttallii) on denitrification rates, and compared it to systems without macrophytes.
