Integrating water depth to predict the threshold of collapse and recovery of submerged macrophytes for lakes with large depth gradients [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionThe nutrient threshold of collapse and recovery of submerged macrophytes have been widely reported for shallow lakes. However, understanding the threshold variation for lakes with water depth (Z) gradients remains limited.MethodsIn this study,

Interactive effects of light and snail herbivory rather than nutrient loading determine early establishment of submerged macrophytes [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Submerged macrophytes play a key role in maintaining a clear‐water phase and promoting biodiversity in shallow aquatic ecosystems. Since their abundance has declined globally due to anthropogenic activities, it is important to include them in aquatic ...

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

Submerged Macrophytes Exhibit Different Phosphorus Stoichiometric Homeostasis [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Phosphorus (P) is a limiting element in many aquatic ecosystems. Excessive P input often leads to cyanobacterial bloom, thus triggering ecological imbalances and a series of environmental problems.

Loss of submerged macrophytes in shallow lakes alters bacterial and archaeal community structures, and reduces their co-occurrence networks connectivity and complexity [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionBacteria and archaea are important components in shallow lake ecosystems and are crucial for biogeochemical cycling. While the submerged macrophyte loss is widespread in shallow lakes, the effect on the bacteria and archaea in the sediment ...
