Epiphytic biofilm is an important component in freshwater ecosystems and is one of the main
primary producers in shallow freshwater ecosystems. The epiphytic biofilm is comprised of …

Macrophytes and phytoplankton including cyanobacteria are main primary producers in
aquatic environments. Macrophytes can maintain water quality by suppressing …

Submerged macrophytes can provide attached surface for biofilms (known as periphyton)
growth. In the present study, the alterations in biofilms formation, and chemical compositions …

The invasion of submerged aquatic plants potentially results in a loss of native biodiversity in
these ecosystems. There has been little attention paid to the impact of invasive submerged …

The influence of macrophytes on the optical environment of the littoral zone was assessed
by studying the effect of monospecific Potamogeton perfoliatus on the quantitative and …

Both non-rooted submerged vegetation dominated by coontail (Ceratophyllum demersum)
and non-rooted floating duckweed vegetation (Lemna gibba) can maintain their stable …

Dominant floating and submerged rootless vegetation can be regarded as alternative stable
states world-wide. The competition between these two vegetation types can be strongly …

The relationships between producers (eg, macrophytes, phytoplankton and epiphytic algae)
and snails play an important role in maintaining the function and stability of shallow …

The synergy between climate change, eutrophication, and biological invasion is threatening
for native submerged plants in many ways. The response of submerged plants to these …

A multidisciplinary approach demonstrates how submerged macrophytes generate high
phenological variability in Hungary's Lake Balaton. A 239‐month time series of water …
