Because of their high growth rate and ability to form dense mats, these plants strongly impact biodiversity and the conservation status of aquatic ecosystems. In Belgium, the invasive water primroses <em>Ludwigia</em> spp. are listed on the Invasive Alien Species watchlist, and conventional management actions (manual or mechanical removal) have been carried out, but successful control stories are underreported. Although seed production has not been reported for <em>L. grandiflora</em> in Belgium, local managers suspect it has occurred over the last five to ten years. We studied seed germination of 18 populations within Belgium by growing collected seeds in Petri dishes under a 12|12 h light regime and 14|24°C temperature regime in growth chambers. Results showed that 14 <em>L. grandiflora</em> populations produced germinating seeds, with final germination percentages ranging from 4 % to 77 % at the end of the study. Time to reach 50 % of germination ranged from 12 to 27 days. These results stress the need to implement control measures for seed production of <em>L. grandiflora</em> populations in the management schemes, especially considering the fast emergence and the high number of seeds produced for some populations. The potential germination could hinder management actions by increasing follow-up control efforts and its associated costs. It is thus in the best interest to prevent seeds ripening by removing the vegetative biomass early in new infestations, and by managing the potential soil seed bank in already established ones.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8273,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Botany","volume":"198 ","pages":"Article 103865"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143146473","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}

The key question posed is whether exotic macrophytes in freshwater ecosystems experience decreased enemy pressure compared to native species, and whether this translates to increased performance parameters. We hypothesize that plant growth form influences ERH expression, with the strongest effects in submerged macrophytes, and that ecological complexity obscures enemy release detection in biogeographical and community studies.

Effects from manipulative experiments revealed significant support for the ERH under abiotic stressors such as eutrophication and temperature change, highlighting the dynamic nature of ecological interactions. However, the 53 community level effects showed contrasting findings, suggesting that native species may outperform invasive conspecifics in more stable environments.

Often, this is accomplished by first using a small number of harvested plants to quantify the relationship between plant biomass and less destructive predictor variables (e.g., height, cover), and then applying this relationship across larger spatial scales. However, the influence of environmental conditions on these relationships is often poorly understood. Here, we assess the impact of environmental variability on two biomass estimation functions for the seagrass <em>Zostera marina</em> in Atlantic Canada: the allometric leaf length-weight relationship and the relationship between percent cover and above-ground biomass (AGBM). First, we determined allometric and cover-AGBM regression relationships at the regional level using data from all sites pooled. We then investigated whether these models could be improved by including a site group covariate based on principal component analysis of site-level environmental data. At the regional level, allometric and cover-biomass models were both strongly significant, although uncertainty was high in the cover-AGBM model. Both models improved markedly when environmental variability (i.e., site group) was included: in warm, shallow conditions, eelgrass leaves were lighter for a given length, and AGBM increased at a slower curvilinear rate with percent cover. This indicates that environmental effects on eelgrass morphological traits not typically included in biomass models (e.g., leaf thickness, rigidity) can be important. Our study suggests that environmental effects on eelgrass biomass models should be considered, particularly when highly accurate estimates with low uncertainty are required.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8273,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Botany","volume":"198 ","pages":"Article 103853"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143146469","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During photosynthesis, carbohydrates are synthesized using electrons produced by absorbed solar radiation. However, surplus electrons, either due to excessive insufficient consumption, often caused by a lack of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) or inorganic carbon, can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to an increase in hydrogen peroxide (H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>) concentrations. Consequently, the intensity of these stressors is often measured by the concentration of H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> in plant tissues. It's important to note that H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> production is not necessarily linked to a single stressor but can result from a combination of environmental factors. The primary objective of the tests was to determine how <em>Myriophyllum spicatum</em> responds to stress and produces H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> in reaction to flow patterns in streams and to high photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in stagnant water. Observations were made at six stream sites. At each site, the flow velocity of the unidirectional mean flow (MV) and the turbulence velocity (TV) were measured within <em>M. spicatum</em> patches. In stagnant water, observations were conducted both in a moat where <em>M. spicatum</em> patches were located and in outdoor experimental tanks, where the plants were grown under controlled water temperatures and natural sunlight. <em>Myriophyllum spicatum</em> samples were collected alongside PAR measurements, and the H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> concentration in plant leaves was analyzed using the TiSO<sub>4</sub> method. In streams, H₂O₂ concentrations were high in areas with very low turbulence. When turbulence reached sufficient levels, concentrations initially declined, then increased with further rising turbulence. In stagnant water, H₂O₂ concentrations, which were higher at elevated temperatures, increased proportionally with PAR intensity. In both scenarios, H₂O₂ levels decreased under extremely high stress, likely due to the deterioration of plant shoots. These results suggest that surplus electrons, arising from either limited electron consumption due to a restricted carbon source for synthesizing organic carbon or an excessive electron supply driven by strong PAR intensity, elevate H₂O₂ concentrations. However, with a sufficient carbon source available, H₂O₂ concentrations increase under heightened turbulence, likely as a result of mechanical stress.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8273,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Botany","volume":"198 ","pages":"Article 103868"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143146859","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}
