Effects of submerged macrophytes (Elodea nuttallii) on water quality and microbial communities of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) ponds [PDF]
Traditional aquaculture ponds are one of the most vulnerable ecosystems; thus, ecological aquaculture is increasingly valued for its beneficial ecological properties and ecosystem services.

The Above-Ground Part of Submerged Macrophytes Plays an Important Role in Ammonium Utilization [PDF]
As a paradoxical nutrient in water ecosystems, ammonium can promote plants growth under moderate concentration, but excess of it causes phytotoxic effects.

Effects of Submerged Macrophyte Decomposition on Water Quality [PDF]
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.

Effects of ammonium pulse on the growth of three submerged macrophytes. [PDF]
Ammonium pulse attributed to runoff of urban surface and agriculture following heavy rain is common in inland aquatic systems and can cause profoundly effects on the growth of macrophytes, especially when combined with low light. In this study, three patterns of NH4-N pulse (differing in magnitude and frequency) were applied to examine their effects on

Loss of submerged macrophytes in shallow lakes alters bacterial and archaeal community structures, and reduces their co-occurrence networks connectivity and complexity [PDF]
IntroductionBacteria 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]
Submerged 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).

How Do Different Growth Forms of Winter Submerged Macrophytes Species Respond to Underwater Light Quality in a Mesocosm Study? [PDF]
Underwater light is a key factor that affects the growth of submerged macrophytes. However, the responses of different growth forms of submerged macrophytes to light quality remain unclear.

Sediments nitrogen cycling influenced by submerged macrophytes growing in winter
Restoration of submerged macrophytes is one of the important measures for ecological treatment of eutrophic lakes. The changes in physical and chemical conditions caused by submerged macrophytes also affect the process of benthic nitrogen cycling.
