International Biological Flora: Trapa natans†

Journal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 10, Page 2386-2420, October 2024.
The water caltrop (Trapa natans L.) was once widely distributed in its native range, but is in some part (i.e. Europe) nowadays very rare, highly threatened and of conservation concern for still unknown reasons. It has been introduced beyond its native range (e.g.

Riverine aquatic plants trap propagules and fine sediment: Implications for ecosystem engineering and management under contrasting land uses

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 2538-2551, 30 June 2024.
Few studies have investigated both propagule and fine sediment retention by submerged aquatic plants in the context of land use. Through propagule bank trials and sediment analysis, we found that marginal emergent and submerged aquatic vegetation traps more propagules, fine sediment and organic matter than unvegetated stream locations.

Assessing leaf physiological traits in response to flooding among dominant riparian herbs along the Three Gorges Dam in China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
Gramineae and Compositae families were significantly represented among the 25 dominant herb species. Annuals and perennials were distributed evenly among herb functional types in riparian forests. Variations in leaf traits among different functional types reveal complex and varied responses to changes in flooding intensity.

Composition of fatty acids of higher aquatic plants in Lake Kotokel as valuable biological raw materials

Proceedings of Universities. Applied Chemistry and Biotechnology
Fatty acids, as part of cell membranes, determine their fluidity and dielectric constant. In addition, they play an important role in human and animal nutrition.

Acoustics of parental and hybridogenetic water frogs (Pelophylax: Amphibia: Ranidae): a tool for monitoring an invasive species

Amphibia-Reptilia
The Pelophylax genus comprises two main hybridogenetic systems resulting from hybridization between Pelophylax ridibundus and other species: the P. lessonae-esculentus (LE) system and the P. perezi-grafi (PG) system, whose distribution ranges lie partly
