The Multiple Roles of Genetics on Freshwater Macrophyte Functional Traits in the Interplay With the Environment: A Review

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This 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 ...

Evaluation of Nuphar lutea as bioindicator of metal pollution in freshwater ecosystems

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Macrophytes have a capacity to absorb elements from the water and sediment and some species can be bioindicators of pollution. The uptake of 12 metals by Nuphar lutea from 56 water bodies was studied to evaluate its bioaccumulation potential and ...

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1419-1433, September 2026.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

Farming in the shadows of Rome: A multi‐proxy palaeoenvironmental record from Loch Clunie—Perthshire

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 915-932, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Roman impacts on local society is a subject of international significance. Loch Clunie, Perthshire, lies only 5.4 km from Inchtuthil, the only Roman legionary fortress in Scotland, and contains two crannogs and a probable lakeside hillfort. Despite this proximity and the likelihood of local–Roman interaction, these sites remain unexcavated ...

Evolution of plant phage-type RNA polymerases: the genome of the basal angiosperm Nuphar advena encodes two mitochondrial and one plastid phage-type RNA polymerases

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background In mono- and eudicotyledonous plants, a small nuclear gene family (RpoT, RNA polymerase of the T3/T7 type) encodes mitochondrial as well as chloroplast RNA polymerases homologous to the T-odd bacteriophage enzymes.

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.

Natural hybridization and the imperiled Nuphar of western Japan

, 2002
Ponds in the Saijo Basin of western Japan contain three Nuphar taxa, two of which are threatened. It has been proposed previously that the rarest of the three, hitherto Nuphar japonica var.

Comparison of Conventional, Rake, and Sonar‐Based Biophysical Habitat Measurements in a Shallow Ontario River

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 1011-1021, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Knowledge of habitat availability is critically important for the management and recovery of freshwater species. Quantifying habitat availability often requires fine‐scale sampling at point‐based locations across a large geographic extent, which can be laboursome.
