Simulated Range Expansion Suggests Rapid Change in Biotic Resistance to a Range‐Shifting Competitor

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We constructed populations of Lemna minor genotypes sourced from localities near and beyond the range edge of a potential range‐shifting competitor, Spirodela polyrhiza. Following 14 weeks of exposure to low densities of S. polyrhiza, we observed subtle but significant rapid evolution and phenotypic plasticity of functional traits in L.

Spatial variability of hydrodynamics in oyster reefs: Investigating the impact of canopy density on mean and turbulent flows

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This field study investigated how oyster canopy density modulates hydrodynamics of natural intertidal oyster reef. High‐resolution velocity measurements were taken simultaneously within and above oyster canopies of variable density (solid volume fractions, Ø=$$ \mathrm{\O}= $$ 0.04–0.21).

Investigation on the trends and characteristics of articles on submerged macrophytes: perception from bibliometrics between 1991 and 2018

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2019
Submerged macrophytes, as one of the most important primary producers in shallow lakes and streams, have attracted significant research attention, with relevant studies showing dynamic evolution over the past three decades.

Nitrogen and Phosphorus Controls on Phytoplankton Growth and Bacterioplankton Communities in Wetland Impoundments

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Nutrient enrichment in shallow lakes and ponds can shift systems from clear water, macrophyte dominance to turbid, phytoplankton dominance. Because the identity and threshold of the limiting nutrients vary among sites, system‐specific evidence is needed to guide water quality management. We conducted 3‐day in situ nutrient‐enrichment bioassays

Charisma: a spatial explicit simulation model of submerged macrophytes [PDF]

, 2003
An individual-based spatially explicit model ('Charisma') designed to simulate the growth of one or more competing species of submerged macrophytes is presentedAn important problem in lake management is the replacement of submerged plant species by ...

Effects of salinity on sprouting and growth of three submerged macrophytes [PDF]

, 2020
Many freshwater ecosystems are facing salinity stress, but limited information is available about its effects on submerged macrophytes. Here, we assessed the effects of salinity on sprouting and growth of three submerged macrophytes-Potamogeton crispus ...

Sedimentary DNA and Fossil Archives Reveal Long‐Term Phytoplankton Shifts and Their Biogeochemical Influence in a Subtropical Lake

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 16, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding long‐term phytoplankton community dynamics is essential for assessing ecological resilience and informing lake management under global change. However, centennial‐scale patterns of phytoplankton dynamics remain poorly resolved due to the limited taxonomic resolution of traditional fossil‐based paleoecological approaches.

Effect of submerged macrophytes on metal and metalloid concentrations in sediments and water of the Yunnan Plateau lakes in China [PDF]

, 2017
Purpose Submerged macrophytes have an ability to absorb metals and metalloids either from the sediments via the roots, from the water by the leaves, or from both sources.

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

Ecological 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 ...
