For <em>Stuckenia pectinata</em> (L.) Börner this has been linked to within-lake factors, both biotic (tuber predation, herbivory, periphyton shading) and abiotic (hydrological connectivity, sediment type). We investigated the <em>S. pectinata</em> population from Lake Naivasha, where submerged aquatic plants tolerated strong historical water level fluctuations until introduced crayfish, shading by floating exotic weeds and increased turbidity nearly eradicated them, although some stands now rebounded in various lake areas. Using 13 nuclear microsatellite loci, we analyzed genetic diversity and structure of <em>S. pectinata</em> subpopulations along the southeastern shoreline of the main lake and inside Crescent Island Crater, a peripheral lake basin enclosed within the rim of an extinct volcano. Results revealed a predominantly sexual reproductive strategy with limited clonal expansion in the main lake contrasting with pronounced clonal growth in the crater basin. Each subpopulation experienced recent bottlenecks. Crater basin subpopulations exhibited the strongest divergence, lower clonal diversity and larger-sized clones. We explain this differentiation by the exposed crater rim acting as barrier, isolating the crater basin from the main lake during recent decades when low water levels prevailed, accompanied with less negative impact from alien species than in the main lake. Clonal extension occurred on steep-sloping hard sandy substrates, that likely prompted local reproductive adaptations. Genetic diversity, clonal structure and connectivity patterns are discussed in the light of the specific history and features of Lake Naivasha.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8273,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Botany","volume":"197 ","pages":"Article 103840"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142746583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four rainwater soaking times (0, 30, 60, and 90 min) were applied to both fresh and dried forms of <em>K. alvarezii</em>.

Results indicate that rainwater significantly reduces dry yield biomass in both fresh and dried forms, while substantially improving carrageenan yield. In its fresh form, exposure to rainwater notably increased gel strength after 90 min of soak. However, when dried seaweed was soaked and re-dried, gel strength was reduced. Rainwater generally had no effect on viscosity or syneresis index. Gelling temperature was significantly affected by rainwater exposure in fresh seaweed but not in dried samples. Melting temperature in fresh forms was unaffected, but rainwater exposure reduced it in dried seaweed after 90 min of soak.

Understanding the factors influencing mangrove species regeneration in specific areas, such as propagule dispersal, predation, and soil conditions, is crucial for comprehending how these populations establish and grow successfully in changing environments. However, there is limited research on the reproductive phenology of Rhizophoraceae in the Sundarbans. Our research was primarily focused on analyzing and comparing the reproductive phenology of three specific species, <em>Bruguiera sexangula</em> (Lour.) Poir., <em>Rhizophora mucronata</em> Lam., and <em>Kandelia candel</em> (L.) Druce within this diverse ecosystem. We studied the flowering pattern, conversion rate, and growth stages of the reproductive organs of these three species. Both inter- and intra-specific variations in propagule mass and size were also investigated. Our findings revealed that the flowers of these species were present for almost half of the year, with a monthly flowering peak occurring primarily in April and May. The propagule of <em>R</em>. <em>mucronata</em> (60.3 cm) was the longest in size which significantly varied from those of <em>K</em>. <em>candel</em> and <em>B</em>. <em>sexangula</em>.

However, it remains unclear whether these filters are truly capable of preventing the spread of small regenerative fragments. To identify potential shortcomings in the management of <em>C. helmsii</em> dispersal, we investigated the regeneration of detached vegetative fragments. A laboratory experiment was conducted to study the regenerative capacity of <em>C. helmsii</em> fragments of varying sizes (0.5–2 mm). We examined the growth performance (stem count, cumulative stem length) of fragments originating from nodes, leaves, shoots, roots, and meristem tissue cuts. All fragments originating from nodal tissue were able to successfully regenerate. Isolated meristem tissue of 0.5 mm was able to regenerate but exhibited malformed growth. Shoot tips demonstrated the best growth performance. While we successfully isolated protoplasts from <em>C. helmsii</em> node tissue, our cultures were compromised, and regeneration could not be assessed.

Conducted in late October 2020, 200 specimens from Lake Zawiad, near Gdansk, Poland, were examined over 75 days. The study tested three pH levels (∼4.5, ∼7.0, and ∼8.5) and a detailed 12-step nutrient gradient (nitrogen: 0–10 mg/l; phosphorus: 0–0.3 mg/l). The analysis focused on isotopic composition in leaves and roots, revealing that acidic conditions favored higher <em>δ</em><sup>13</sup>C values (leaves: −22.67 ‰; roots: −23.23 ‰), suggesting a preference for lighter carbon forms in photosynthesis and intensive use of limited sources of CO<sub>2</sub>.

This study determined the influence of creek physicochemical variables on the diversity and distribution of coastal salt marsh plants. Six transects in the lower reaches of the Berg River Estuary, South Africa were sampled over two seasons at sites with either the presence or absence of creeks. Species composition and abundance were analysed by replicate quadrats and paired with physicochemical variables (groundwater and sediment). The k-means of 20 species in 334 quadrats revealed four distinct clusters of salt marsh habitats, creeks, intertidal salt marsh, supratidal salt marsh and reeds. Species richness was higher along transects with creeks (16) compared to those with no creeks (5). The physiochemical variables, groundwater temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, and sediment variables (redox potential, organic content, percentage silt and percentage sand), significantly influenced the abundance of creek species.
