Increases in the structural complexity of submerged macrophytes are often shown to be linked to higher invertebrate abundance and diversity, but a number of studies have demonstrated, however, that this is not always the case. The objective of this study

Control of macrophytes by grass carp (ctenopharyngodon idella) in a Waikato drain, New Zealand [PDF]
Hornwort (Ceratophyllum demersum L.) and other aquatic macrophytes have historically been mechanically removed from the Rangiriri drain and Churchill East drain to maintain drain efficiency.

Background Invasive ecosystem engineers can facilitate their invasions by modifying the physical environment to improve their own performance, but this positive feedback process has rarely been tested empirically except in sessile organisms. The invasive

Variability response of aquatic macrophytes in inland lakes: A case study of Lake Nasser
Aquatic macrophytes are plants that live in water or wet soil, grow profusely in lakes and waterways, and provide several ecological benefits. Lake Nasser, an artificial reservoir, has been the most critical element in Egypt’s social and economic ...

Systems with aquatic macrophytes have been developed as low-impact, low-energy, and low-cost solutions for the remediation of water pollutants. As plants metabolize toxicants in much the same way that an animal liver would, the name “Green Liver Systems”

Transplantation of submerged macrophytes has been widely used to improve water quality in restoring shallow lakes in China. However, in some lakes, small omnivorous fish predominated the fish assemblages and fed mainly on submerged macrophytes.

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 ...
