Influences of a submerged macrophyte on colony formation and growth of a green alga

open access: yesAquatic Biology, 2013
The effects of the submerged macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum on the growth and morphology of the green alga Scenedesmus obliquus were assessed by conducting co-culture laboratory experiments (15 and 25°C, presence/absence of 3 g fresh wt of C. demersum

Changes in food‐web pathways and ecosystem functions after sidearm re‐connection in a large river (Danube, Austria)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction River regulation schemes generally led to changes in riverine assemblage composition and their trophic status, which often is reflected in a general loss or decrease of characteristic species and a concomitant increase or dominance of generalist species.

Endophytic bacteria enhance macrophyte resilience but reduce microbial network stability under eutrophication

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Lake eutrophication poses a serious threat to the biodiversity and ecosystem functions of submerged macrophytes. As symbiotic microorganisms of submerged macrophyte, endophytic bacteria can enhance plant’s stress resistance and promote its growth ...

Trophic relationships between primary producers and associated fauna in a pristine Cerrado pond

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2019
Ponds arising from groundwater in Cerrado of Central Brazil are oligotrophic but highly biodiverse environments. In this study, we used stable isotope ratios to test if there are variations in carbon and nitrogen acquisition by different primary food ...

Early results and lessons learned from biomanipulation and chemical restoration of a eutrophic shallow lake

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over 44% of European lakes fail to meet ecological quality standards, prompting substantial investment in lake restoration to achieve good ecological status. Unfortunately, effects are often short‐lived due to persistent internal phosphorus (P) loading and strong cyprinid‐driven bottom‐up control, which limits water quality ...

Organic‐matter sources and stability in kettle‐hole sediments: A combined thermogravimetric and isotopic approach

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Kettle‐holes are small but biogeochemically active landscape elements that integrate terrestrial inputs and influence carbon and nitrogen cycling. However, the stability and sources of organic matter (OM) in kettle‐hole sediments remain poorly understood.

The effects of nutrient level on periphyton–macrophyte interactions in freshwater ecosystems

open access: yesWater Biology and Security
Periphyton are one of the key primary producers in aquatic ecosystems, particularly in oligotrophic shallow lakes. Submerged macrophytes are capable of competing with periphyton for nutrients and light, but may also facilitate periphyton by providing ...

Influence of submerged macrophytes on phosphorus in a eutrophic reservoir in a semiarid region

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2020
Phosphorus (P) is the main nutrient responsible for the harmful effects caused by the enrichment of aquatic systems, and submerged macrophytes play an important role in this process, since they can both remove and release this nutrient in environmental ...

Seasonal Patterns and Environmental Drivers of Seagrass (Zostera muelleri) Flowering in Aotearoa New Zealand: Implications for Seed‐Based Restoration

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
Seagrass flowering underpins seed‐based restoration and is governed by the interaction of multiple abiotic and biotic drivers operating across a range of temporal and spatial scales. In New Zealand/Aotearoa, flowering was historically considered rare, but emerging evidence indicates it is more widespread than previously recognised, creating new ...

Vertical optical complexity shaped by submerged macrophytes

open access: yesScientific Reports
AbstractThe influence of macrophytes on the optical environment of the littoral zone was assessed by studying the effect of monospecific Potamogeton perfoliatus on the quantitative and qualitative properties of light and the response of plants to this altered environment. P.
