Effect of the structural complexity of aquatic macrophytes on epiphytic algal, macroinvertebrates, and their interspecific relationships
Aquatic macrophytes may have a significant effect on associated communities such as epiphytes and macroinvertebrates, which through the structural...

Functional trait-based potential invasiveness of exotic submerged macrophytes and their effects on sediment bacterial community
Functional traits of exotic species play an important role in their invasive process by enhancing their performance and promoting them as a...

Community stability and seasonal biotic homogenisation emphasize the effect of the invasive tropical tanner grass on macrophytes from a highly dynamic neotropical tidal river
We described the spatial and temporal dynamics of aquatic macrophytes in a Neotropical coastal estuarine river, and identified the negative effects...

Application and Viability of Macrophytes as Green Manure
The increase in the human population is an important challenge to the food security in the world. Each year there are fewer areas in the planet... -
Legacies of invasive plant management: effects of leaching from glyphosate-treated and untreated plants on germination and early growth of native macrophytes
Invasive plant management can support the restoration of native plant communities. Glyphosate-based herbicides are commonly used for management...

Development of an eco-friendly procedure to generate valuable active polyphenolic purified fractions from marine macrophytes
This study focused on an innovative and eco-friendly procedure to purify bioactive phenolic compounds (PC) from marine plants, i.e., two macroalgae Bif...

Reach hydromorphology: a crucial environmental variable for the occurrence of riverine macrophytes
Management measures targeting riverine macrophyte species often address dissolved nitrogen and phosphorus compounds. With recent reductions of...

Submerged macrophytes in Danish lakes: impact of morphological and chemical factors on abundance and species richness
We analysed long-term monitoring data on submerged macrophytes and water chemistry from 666 Danish lakes > 1 hectare and mean depth < 3 m,...

Responses of Four Peatland Emergent Macrophytes to Salinity and Short Salinity Pulses
Sea-level rise intensifies saltwater influx into coastal wetlands causing osmotic stress and probably changing vegetation composition. To determine...

The presence of macrophytes changes the beta diversity of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera (EPT) assemblages in Cerrado streams in Northeastern Brazil
In-stream conditions can affect the distribution of the Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera orders (EPT) because they require specific food...

Submerged macrophytes support cyanobacteria and microcystin production in a drawdown tropical semi-arid reservoir
Eutrophication is recognized as the main water quality problem worldwide, mainly due to the prevalence of harmful cyanobacterial blooms. Submerged...

Drivers of species richness, biomass, and dominance of invasive macrophytes in temperate lakes
Presence and abundance of invasive species depend on likelihood of introduction and environmental limitations to their distributions. Propagule...

Role of Microbial Communities and Aquatic Macrophytes in Constructed Wetlands for Tannery Wastewater Treatment: Challenges and Opportunities
Tannery wastewaters are notoriously difficult to manage because of its complicated chemical makeup. There is a significant amount of chromium-laden... -
Clonality in invasive alien macrophytes in Kashmir Himalaya: a stage-based approach
While the link between clonality and species invasiveness has recently been recognized, whether and how clonality vary with different invasion stages...

Growth forms and life-history strategies predict the occurrence of aquatic macrophytes in relation to environmental factors in a shallow peat lake complex
Aquatic ecosystems provide vital services, and macrophytes play a critical role in their functioning. Conceptual models indicate that in shallow...

Effects of invasive wetland macrophytes on habitat selection and movement by freshwater turtles
Invasive species can significantly impact native wildlife by structurally altering habitats and access to resources. Understanding how native species...

Assessment of the efficiency of river macrophytes to detect water-column nutrient levels and other environmental conditions in Irish rivers
Macrophytes are an essential biological element of freshwater aquatic ecosystems and are well known to reflect prevailing ecological conditions in...

Pursuing the protein challenge 2040: macrophytes protein production in temperate transitional water systems
The in-field protein production of four macroalgae ( Gracilariopsis vermiculophylla , Gracilaria gracilis , Gracilariopsis longissima, Ulva australis )...

Zooplankton taxonomic and functional structure is determined by macrophytes and fish predation in a Neotropical river
Habitat structure and predation are major factors that influence the distribution of zooplankton species and functional traits. Here, we analyzed how...

Submerged Rootless Macrophytes Sustain a Stable State Against Free-Floating Plants
Both non-rooted submerged vegetation dominated by coontail ( Ceratophyllum demersum) and non-rooted floating duckweed vegetation ( Lemna gibba ) can...
