Distribution of epiphytic diatoms on five macrophytes from a Pampean shallow lake: host-specificity and implications for paleoenvironmental reconstructions
(Biopress Limited, 2017-07)
Epiphytic diatoms are an important component of death and fossil assemblages in macrophyte-dominated shallow lakes. In the Argentinean Pampas, the lack of studies on the composition, diversity and distribution of epiphytic ...
Chemical repellency and adverse effects of free-floating macrophytes on the cladoceran Ceriodaphnia dubia under two temperature levels
(Springer Tokyo, 2013-06)
Macrophytes can structure biological assemblages in subtropical lakes. Zooplankton often uses them as a refuge, but in the absence of predators many species frequently avoid them. It is hypothesized that plant exudates can ...
The efficiency of free-floating and emergent aquatic macrophytes in constructed wetlands for the treatment of a fishpond effluent
(2018-10-01)
Many studies have evaluated the efficiency of constructed wetlands (CWs) for the treatment of fishpond effluents, but only a few have compared between CWs with emergent and free-floating macrophytes and assessed the amount ...
How free-floating macrophytes influence interactions between planktivorous fish and zooplankton in tropical environments? An in-lake mesocosm approach
(2020-03-01)
In tropical climates, free-floating aquatic plants may dominate shallow lakes and affect trophic interactions between zooplankton and their predators have been presented as an important subject to be investigated. The ...
Approaches for phosphorus removal with calcium hydroxide and floating macrophytes in a mesocosm experiment: impacts on plankton structure
(Springer, 2018-11)
Cultural eutrophication has promoted theapplication of several mitigation strategies in the last50 years. In this study we tested the combined effectsof two techniques: calcium hydroxide [(Ca(OH)2),lime] and a free-floating ...
Chromium ions phytoaccumulation by three floating aquatic macrophytes from a nutrient medium
(SPRINGER, 2008)
In the present work, the trivalent and hexavalent chromium phytoaccumulation by three living free floating aquatic macrophytes Salvinia auriculata, Pistia stratiotes, and Eicchornia crassipes was investigated in greenhouse. ...
Aquatic macrophyte distribution in relation to water and sediment conditions in the Itaipu Reservoir, Brazil
(Kluwer Academic Publ, 1999-11-01)
Aquatic macrophyte community distribution along the eastern shoreline of the Itaipu Reservoir (one of the South America's largest impoundments) is described in relation to limnological and sedimentological factors. The ...
Influence of Eichhornia crassipes (Mart) solms on a tropical microcrustacean community based on taxonomic and functional trait diversity
(2019-11-01)
Macrophytes are important structural attributes of freshwater ponds and wetlands, affecting zooplankton community composition. One of the best-known macrophytes in the world is Eichhornia crassipes, which, due to its high ...
Macrophytes as drivers of pleustonic Ostracoda (Crustacea) in tropical floodplain lakesMacrófitas como preditoras da diversidade de ostrácodes (crustacea) pleustônicos em lagoas de uma planície de inundação tropical
(Universidade Federal de LavrasPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia AplicadaUFLAbrasilDepartamento de Biologia, 2018)
Seasonal-dependence in the responses of biological communities to flood pulses in warm temperate floodplain lakes: implications for the “alternative stable states” model
(Springer, 2014-10)
In floodplains located in temperate regions, seasonal variations in temperature affect biological communities and these effects may overlap with those of the flood regime. In this study we explored if and how timing (with ...
