Turion morphological responses to water nutrient concentrations and plant density in the submerged macrophyte Potamogeton crispus
Asexual propagules are the dominant means of propagation in most submerged macrophytes. To improve the understanding of how water nutrient concentrations and population density influence the turion production of Potamogeton crispus L., the turions were planted in mesocosms with three water nutrient conditions (ambient lake water, high P and high N) and two plant density levels (4 and 15 turions...
متن کاملDifferences in the regeneration traits of Potamogeton crispus turions from macrophyte- and phytoplankton-dominated lakes.
Potamogeton crispus is widely used in submerged macrophyte restoration in China. Turions are an important means of reproduction in this species. To compare the regeneration abilities of P. crispus turions in macrophyte- and phytoplankton-dominated lakes, we collected P. crispus turions from a macrophyte-dominated lake (Liangzi Lake) and a phytoplankton-dominated lake (Taihu Lake). Both lakes ar...
متن کاملAssessment of macrophyte, heavy metal, and nutrient concentrations in the water of the Nairobi River, Kenya
Nairobi River tributaries are the main source of the Athi River. The Athi River basin is the fourth largest and important drainage system in Kenya covering 650 km and with a drainage area of 70,000 km2. Its water is used downstream by about four million people not only for irrigation but also for domestic purposes. However, its industrial, raw sewer, and agricultural pollution is alarming. In o...
متن کاملResponses of the submerged macrophyte Vallisneria natans to elevated CO2 and temperature
Inorganic carbon and temperature are 2 important factors that regulate the growth of submerged macrophytes. However, experimental evidence regarding the eco-physiological changes that occur in submerged macrophytes in response to elevated CO2 and temperature is still limited. To investigate how the submerged macrophyte Vallisneria natans (Hydrocharitaceae), a common species in the waters of the...
متن کاملNutrient Absorption by the Submerged Macrophyte Egeria densa Planch.: Effect of Ammonium and Phosphorus Availability in the Water Column on Growth and Nutrient Uptake
The relative importance of phosphorus and nitrogen absorption fkom water and sediments by Egeria densa Planch. (Hydrocharitaceae), a subinerged macropliyte very common in Pampean streams in Argentina, was experiiiientally assesced. Two experiments were performed to determine the importance of water as opposed to sediment cource of phosphorus, and to investigate the effect oftype of nitrogenouc ...
