Do submerged macrophyte species influence crustacean zooplankton functional group richness and their resource use efficiency in the low-light environment? [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
During the high grazing of epiphytic zooplankton in submerged macrophyte beds, the changes in crustacean zooplankton functional groups are crucial for stabilizing a clear water state in shallow lakes.

From environment to biomass: trait-mediated effects on submerged macrophyte biomass in a subtropical shallow restored lake [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Recovery of submerged macrophyte communities is crucial for the restoration of shallow eutrophic lakes, as macrophyte biomass here plays a key role in maintaining a clear-water state.

Vegetative Propagule Pressure and Water Depth Affect Biomass and Evenness of Submerged Macrophyte Communities. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Vegetative propagule pressure may affect the establishment and structure of aquatic plant communities that are commonly dominated by plants capable of clonal growth.

Response of Submerged Macrophyte Communities to External and Internal Restoration Measures in North Temperate Shallow Lakes [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Submerged macrophytes play a key role in north temperate shallow lakes by stabilizing clear-water conditions. Eutrophication has resulted in macrophyte loss and shifts to turbid conditions in many lakes.

The Correlation between Genotype Richness of Submerged Macrophytes and Periphyton Biomass: A Mesocosm Study Based on Five Dominant Submerged Macrophytes from Yangtze River

Plants, 2023
Submerged macrophyte and periphyton are main primary producers which strongly interact with each other in clear water shallow lakes. In this study, the effects of genetic variation of the macrophyte species on periphyton biomass were studied in five ...

Macrophyte habitat architecture and benthic-pelagic coupling: Photic habitat demand to build up large P storage capacity and bio-surface by underwater vegetation

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Macrophytes play an important role in shallow lakes if large standing crop can be achieved. Here we stress the role of submerged macrophytes for benthic-pelagic coupling in the shallow oxbow lake Alte Donau (Austria) during restoration triggered by ...

Invasive crayfish threaten the development of submerged macrophytes in lake restoration. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Submerged macrophytes enhance water transparency and aquatic biodiversity in shallow water ecosystems. Therefore, the return of submerged macrophytes is the target of many lake restoration projects.

Eutrophication drives regime shift via changes in stoichiometric homeostasis-based submerged macrophyte assemblages

npj Clean Water, 2022
Homeostasis for phosphorus (HP) in submerged macrophytes may influence the susceptibility of lakes to regime shifts; however, the mechanisms linking submerged macrophyte HP to regime shifts remain unclear.
