According to the Size Efficiency Hypothesis, large-bodied cladocerans are superior competitors over small-bodied species because they are more effective filter-feeders and can consume a wider size spectrum of food particles. However, we hypothesized that food quality in terms of phosphorus (P) and/or polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) content can alter competitive interactions, and these potential effects can be modified by temperature. Since large-bodied cladocerans are more vulnerable to poor food quality and are regarded as less adaptive to high temperatures, we hypothesized that large-bodied species would be superior competitors at low temperature and/or high food quality, while small-bodied cladocerans would be competitively superior at enhanced temperature and/or poor food quality. To verify this hypothesis, we conducted laboratory experiments with the small-bodied <em>D. longispina</em> and large-bodied <em>D. magna</em> fed with three different types of food: (1) P-poor and PUFA-rich green algae (low phosphorus or LP-treatment), (2) PUFA-poor-cyanobacteria treatment (CYANO) and (3) P-rich and PUFA-rich green algae (high phosphorus or HP-treatment) at 18°C and 24°C. We found that <em>D. magna</em> had a stronger suppressive competitive effect on <em>D. longispina</em> in all food quality and temperature treatments. Nevertheless, food quality and temperature modified competitive interactions between the small- and large-bodied <em>Daphnia</em>. In HP and CYANO, both <em>Daphnia</em> species were more strongly suppressed by competitor presence at high than low temperatures, whereas in LP mutual suppression was relatively weaker at higher temperatures. This phenomenon was attributed to higher requirement for P at enhanced temperature which created constraints for population growth thus decreasing competitive interactions at higher temperatures. Mutual competitive suppression in CYANO was weaker than in the HP treatment although cyanobacteria had the greatest negative impact on the abundance of both <em>Daphnia</em> species. In general our results show that the outcome of competition between large and small-bodied cladoceran species was not affected by food quality and/or temperature, yet, these factors markedly altered competitive interactions between species.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51110,"journal":{"name":"Limnologica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142229514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the rivers experiencing anthropogenic impacts, limited studies have investigated their water quality and ecological community structure. This study assessed zooplankton functional groups' spatial and seasonal dynamics relative to environmental factors in the three urban rivers. The samples were collected and analyzed seasonally between March and December 2019. The environmental factors varied significantly at spatial and seasonal scales (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.05). Meishe and Wuyuan Rivers had higher electrical conductivity, salinity, TN, and TP than Changwang, which had low turbidity. Seasonally, higher TP, TN, NH<sub>3</sub>-N, and COD<sub>Mn</sub> levels were found in the spring, while summer and autumn experienced high temperatures. Additionally, spring and summer had high Chl-<em>a</em> levels. Likewise, spring had the lowest heavy metal concentrations, while nearly all metals were elevated in winter and summer. Generally, the average metal content followed the order of Mn &gt; Zn &gt; Cu &gt; Ni &gt; As &gt; Cr &gt; Co &gt; Pb &gt; Cd. The environmental parameters were within class III of the China standard for surface waters (GB 3838–2002), suggesting negligible pollution. This study identified 159 zooplankton species, including 62 Rotifers, 50 Protozoans, 31 Cladocerans, and 16 Copepods. They were classified into 11 functional groups, dominated by Rotifers filter feeders (RF), Rotifers carnivores (RC), and small copepods and cladocerans filter feeders (SCF), followed by Middle copepods and cladocera carnivores (MCC) and Middle copepods and cladocerans filter feeders (MCF). Analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) revealed seasonal differences (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.001) in zooplankton functional groups, with RF and RC most dominant in summer, autumn, and winter, while SCF, MCF, and MCC were dominant in spring. Hence, the redundancy analysis (RDA) and Pearson Correlation analysis revealed that temperature, Chl-<em>a</em>, TP, salinity, COD<sub>Mn</sub>, NH<sub>3</sub>-N, TN, As, Co, and Cd were the main environmental factors influencing zooplankton functional groups.

The species characterized by their habitat selection can be considered as diagnostic species of those specific habitats.

The main aim of this study was to investigate through an experimental study as two globally invasive freshwater macrophytes, <em>Hydrilla verticillata</em> and <em>Egeria densa,</em> respond to the changes in water transparency caused by siltation. We performed a factorial experiment to test the effect of turbidity increase caused by siltation on growth of these two species. For this, we included sand or mud sediment in containers to obtain without and with siltation treatments. Then both species were planted at the two treatments and grown for 30 days. The main results of our study were that there was a shift in the dominance at the performance of some biological traits between the species, where <em>H. verticillata</em> showed better development of these biological traits than <em>E. densa</em> at treatment with siltation, and the reverse was also true, where <em>E. densa</em> had better performance in without siltation treatment. In summary, our results demonstrated that if the increase in water siltation continues at the current rate, a greater performance of <em>H. verticillata</em> can also be expected and, consequently, the impacts on aquatic biodiversity will also increased.

This study aimed to elucidate the longitudinal distribution patterns of fish fauna and their correlation with environmental factors in several watersheds within the East Setouchi Ecological Region, renowned for its rich freshwater fish diversity in the Japanese archipelago. Data were obtained for 118 species across 10 watersheds and 85 sites, and the surveyed sites were classified into four longitudinal groups based on the similarity of the fish fauna. The lowest group comprised river estuaries, abundant in brackish-water fish, comprising primarily Gobiidae species. In lower watershed areas with low agricultural land and forest cover but high urbanization, all fish species selected as indicators were non-native. Upstream areas with a high percentage of agricultural land featured a mix of native Cyprinidae and non-native species such as <em>Micropterus salmoides</em> and <em>Rhodeus ocellatus ocellatus</em>. The most upstream groups, marked by significantly greater elevations and bed slopes, exclusively comprised native species as indicator species. Analyzing the longitudinal distribution patterns of fish fauna at multiple sites within the same ecological region enabled us to choose endemic fish species as indicators and identify important species for conservation.
