- H. Fu, Jiayou Zhong, +9 authors L. Ni
- Biology
- 1 December 2014
Trait-based approaches provide a framework for integrating the distribution of functional traits associated with ecological strategies into the responses of plant community dynamics along… Expand
Acute Biochemical Responses of a Submersed Macrophyte, Potamogeton crispus L., to High Ammonium in an Aquarium Experiment
ABSTRACT Acute biochemical responses of Potamogeton crispus L. to high external ammonium were investigated in an aquarium experiment. Shoots of P: crispus were incubated in aquaria for 24 h or 48 h… Expand
The role of NH+4 toxicity in the decline of the submersed macrophyte Vallisneria natans in lakes of the Yangtze River basin, China
- T. Cao, P. Xie, +4 authors A. Smolders
- Biology
- 18 July 2007
Experimental and field studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of NH4+ enrichment on growth and distribution of the submersed macrophyte, Vallisneria natans L, in lakes of the Yangtze River in… Expand
Effects of moderate ammonium enrichment on three submersed macrophytes under contrasting light availability
- T. Cao, L. Ni, P. Xie, Jun Xu, Meng Zhang
- Biology
- 1 August 2011
1. Increased ammonium concentrations and decreased light availability in a water column have been reported to adversely affect submersed vegetation in eutrophic waters worldwide. 2. We studied the… Expand
Carbon and nitrogen metabolism of an eutrophication tolerative macrophyte, Potamogeton crispus, under NH4+ stress and low light availability
- T. Cao, P. Xie, L. Ni, Meng Zhang, J. Xu
- Biology
- 1 April 2009
Submersed macrophytes in eutrophic lakes often experience high NH4+ concentration and low light availability in the water column. This study found that an NH4+-N concentration of 1 mgL(-1) in the… Expand
Ammonium, microcystins, and hypoxia of blooms in eutrophic water cause oxidative stress and C-N imbalance in submersed and floating-leaved aquatic plants in Lake Taihu, China.
