ABSTRACT River ecosystems are increasingly vulnerable to intensified human pressures associated with population growth and rising living standards, leading to structural changes and altered ecosystem service (ES) provision. The lower course of the Hrazdan River (Armenia) exemplifies these impacts, as it flows through Yerevan, the capital city, and ...

What Drives Seasonal Mat Dynamics in Eutrophic Lake: Allelopathy or Environmental Gradients?
A two‐season field study of eutrophic Lake Oporzyńskie showed that phenolic compounds and water physicochemistry jointly, but unevenly, drive the mat dynamics of Cladophora glomerata and Lemna minor, with phenolics explaining a much larger part of the variability in mat size than physicochemical parameters.

Lake eutrophication often causes declines and even losses of submerged macrophytes through the shading effects of increased periphyton and phytoplankton.

Experimentally derived critical thermal maxima (CTmax) are widely used to estimate species' thermal tolerance and increasingly to predict vulnerability to chronic warming. However, evidence shows how CTmax is dynamic and can be strongly influenced by multiple environmental and methodological factors, potentially limiting its application as a fixed ...

This review examines how genetic and environmental factors jointly shape functional trait variation in aquatic plants. By synthesizing the literature from the last fifteen years, we analyze the roles of genetic diversity, epigenetic variation, genome size, and gene expression in relation to phenotypic plasticity, natural selection, and genetic drift ...

In this study, we used 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to characterize the fecal microbiota of four crane species wintering in agricultural rice paddies at Poyang Lake, China: Siberian crane (Leucogeranus leucogeranus), hooded crane (Grus monacha), white‐naped crane (Grus vipio), and common crane (Grus grus).

Abstract Herbivory shapes plant invasion outcomes, yet its role in aquatic plant invasions under artificial light at night (ALAN) remains poorly understood. We conducted three experiments using an invasive macrophyte Myriophyllum aquaticum, a native macrophyte community comprising Vallisneria natans, Hydrilla verticillata, Myriophyllum spicatum, as ...

An integrated microwave‐assisted extraction (MAE) and spray‐drying process was developed and optimized by response surface methodology (RSM) to produce a stable chlorophyll powder from the underutilized aquatic macrophyte Ceratophyllum submersum L. The resulting powder combined high pigment retention (67.81% chlorophyll; 63.74% recovery) with favorable
