Effects of Submerged Macrophyte Decomposition on Water Quality [PDF]
Nature Environment and Pollution Technology, 2022 Submerged macrophytes play an important role in aquatic ecosystems and are widely used in aquatic ecological restoration. However, when submerged macrophytes fade, litter, or even decompose, they may cause adverse effects on water quality.

Responses of four submerged macrophytes to freshwater snail density (Radix swinhoei) under clear-water conditions: A mesocosm study. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2020 Macrophytes play a key role in stabilizing clear‐water conditions in shallow freshwater ecosystems. Their populations are maintained by a balance between plant grazing and plant growth.

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 ...

Interspecific Differences in Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism and Leaf Epiphytic Bacteria among Three Submerged Macrophytes in Response to Elevated Ammonia Nitrogen Concentrations [PDF]
PlantsSubmerged macrophytes in eutrophic aquatic environments adapt to changes in ammonia nitrogen (NH4-N) levels by modifying their levels of free amino acids (FAAs) and soluble carbohydrates (SCs).

Introduction of Native Submerged Macrophytes to Restore Biodiversity in Streams. [PDF]
Plants (Basel)Streams are biodiversity hotspots that provide numerous ecosystem services. Safeguarding this biodiversity is crucial to uphold sustainable ecosystem functioning and to ensure the continuation of these ecosystem services in the future. However, in recent decades, streams have witnessed a disproportionate decline in biodiversity compared to other ...
