Comparative effects of water level variations on growth characteristics of Myriophyllum aquaticum
Myriophyllum aquaticum is a non-native aquatic plant that has invaded a range of habitats in the United States and Europe. Myriophyllum aquaticum reduces native species richness at local scales, water quality, habitat quality for fish and wildlife and impacts on human uses. Despite the submersed leaf form, M. aquaticum is not typically a weed problem as water level increases, although little da...

PURPOSE: Native submersed macrophyte growth is often limited by underwater light availability in eutrophic aquatic systems. Control of canopy-forming exotic species does not necessarily lead to greater light penetration because eutrophic systems usually sustain high algal biomass in the form of cyanobacterial blooms that can rapidly attenuate light near the lake surface. High phosphorus (P) loa...

Parrotfeather ( Myriophyllum aquaticum (Vell. Verdc) is an invasive aquatic plant to the United States that is native to South America. Myriophyllum aquaticum is described as “stout, stems moderately elongate, partially submersed but with portions of leafy branches emersed (Godfrey and Wooten 1981). Emergent leaves are whorled, stiff, usually with 20 or more linear filiform divisions, appearing...
متن کاملFlow Management to Control Excessive Growth of Macrophytes – An Assessment Based on Habitat Suitability Modeling
Mediterranean rivers in intensive agricultural watersheds usually display outgrowths of macrophytes - notably alien species - due to a combination of high concentrations of nutrients in the water runoff and low flows resulting from water abstraction for irrigation. Standard mechanical and chemical control is used to mitigate the problems associated with excessive growth of plant biomass: mainly...
