In plant communities, genotypic diversity can impact the community structure and ecosystem functions, but related research has focused on native plants. Therefore, whether affects growth of invasive plants then changes wetland microecosystem remains unresolved. this study, six different genotypes Hydrocotyle vulgaris, a common in China, were selected to construct populations with three levels (...

This study evaluated changes in the structure for remnant Mixed Ombrophilous Forest recovering from logging, which ceased over 40 years ago. Regarding dynamics of floristic composition natural regeneration, 18 species remained (23.38% total) and 27 new entered (35.06% total). The greatest increases were observed Allophylus edulis, Myrsine umbellata, Miconia cinerascens. When analyzing regenerat...

The extent of O2 transport from aerial plant tissue into the root zone was evaluated for several floating and emergent aquatic macrophytes that have characteristics favorable for wastewater treatment. The highest Oi transport rates from aerial tissue into the root zone were associated with plants having a small root mass. As root mass increased, the rate of O, transport decreased for aquatic ma...
