Ammonia has been a major reason of macrophyte decline in the water environment, and ammonium ion toxicity should be seen as universal, even in species frequently labeled as "NH4+ specialists". To study the effects of high NH4+-N stress of ammonium ion nitrogen on tolerant submerged macrophytes and
Freshwater macrophytes stimulate rhizosphere-associated coupled nitrification-denitrification and are therefore likely to influence the community composition and abundance of rhizosphere-associated denitrifiers and nitrate reducers. Using the narG gene, which encodes the catalytic subunit of the
We report the evaluation of changes in water quality, increasing pollution level, of a section of Suquía River basin (Córdoba, Argentina) by using Myriophyllum quitense as bioindicator in addition to the measurement of chemical parameters, combined with chemometrics (ANOVA, Cluster and Discriminant
Endosulfan (1) is a chlorinated insecticide still in use in both developed and emerging countries. Although its toxicity on animals has been studied in the last years, scarce information is available on its effects on plants. In this study, we exposed the aquatic macrophyte Myriophyllum quitense to
Microbes play an important role in the biotransformation of arsenic (As) speciation in various environments. Nevertheless, whether epiphytic bacteria that attached on submerged macrophytes have the potential to influence As speciation still remains unclear. In this study, sterile or nonsterile
