It is fertile and produces both backcrossed and advanced-generation hybrids, leading to morphological overlaps with parent species; therefore, genetic data are necessary for understanding the dynamics of this hybrid zone. In this review we summarize some of the ways in which genetic data have helped us to understand this hybrid zone, including the distributions of parent species and hybrids; symmetrical and asymmetrical hybrid crosses; the prevalence of different hybrid classes; hybrid fitness and hybrid breakdown; and gene flow and genetic diversity. We end by identifying some knowledge gaps and future research directions that can help us to further understand what may be the most widespread hybrid macrophyte in North America.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8273,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Botany","volume":"202 ","pages":"Article 103941"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145018555","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}

Although they are fairly well understood as lineages in isolation, there have been few comprehensive syntheses of all aquatic plant species worldwide. The opportunity for a broad study of aquatic plant evolution has been enabled by the accumulation of abundant molecular, morphological, and biogeographical data in recent years, as well as associated analysis methods. The current study utilizes available data to evaluate angiosperm phylogenetic relationships, focusing on lineages with one or more aquatic species, and to reconstruct the ancestral timing and biogeography of lineages that became aquatic. It was estimated that there were 604 independent origins of the aquatic habit, resulting in 3427 extant aquatic species. The frequency of aquatic origins apparently increased over several time periods, relative to the diversification rate of terrestrial angiosperms. Aquatic plant species most commonly exhibit the hyperhydrate (emergent) growth form, which characterizes the majority of extant species and likely represents a common ancestral habit for most aquatic lineages. Potential limitations of the current study are discussed, including data quality, ancestral biogeography and dating methods, and the uncertainty associated with defining aquatic plants. This study should serve as a foundation for future research into aquatic plant evolution and the development of a phylogenetically informed growth form classification for aquatic plants.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8273,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Botany","volume":"202 ","pages":"Article 103928"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144826529","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 total nitrogen (TN) concentration of the water in the wetland’s inlet is 1.153 ± 0.112 mg/L. During this study, artificial ponds were used to simulate these natural changes. Experiments were then conducted to examine the response of growth, the ramet number, the biomass accumulation, and the allocation of the two aforementioned species in different hydroperiods (a static water depth and an increasing water depth) and soil nitrogen conditions (0.5, 1.1, and 1.7 mg g⁻¹ TN).

In contrast, <em>B. planiculmis’</em> values were substantially lower under the increasing water depth than those under the 10 cm static water depth. <em>P. australis</em> exhibited an initial increase followed by a decline in response to nitrogen addition, independent of hydroperiod conditions. Conversely, under static water conditions, <em>B. planiculmis’</em> total biomass and aboveground biomass increased significantly with the addition of nitrogen. This indicates that the interaction between the nitrogen supply and the hydroperiod of wetland plants is species-specific and dependent on nitrogen availability. Although an increased nitrogen supply resulted in higher belowground biomass, plant height, and ramet and tuber numbers for <em>B. planiculmis</em> under the increasing water depth, these values were still significantly lower than those under the static water conditions.

For this study case, we estimated herbivory damage in 100 leaves collected from 10 to 15 individuals of each species in a Brazilian mangrove using the classical visual method. We measured the leaf thickness, nutrient (N, P, K and Ca), heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Ni, and Pb), and phenol concentrations and compared them using ANOVA.

Our results demonstrated that <em>A. aureum</em> had higher palatability associated with thinner leaves, absence of Ni, lower Ca and phenol content, and higher NPK concentrations, compared to the other mangrove species. However, <em>A. aureum</em> exhibited significantly lower herbivory damage (0.05 %) than <em>L. racemosa</em> (0.75 %) and <em>R. mangle</em> (2.86 %). Therefore, the palatability of <em>A. aureum</em> leaves did not lead to higher herbivory damage in this species. Our findings underscore the challenges in generalizing the effects of leaf defenses and nutritional composition on herbivory in mangrove species. We encourage global herbivory data collection in <em>A. aureum</em> to better understand its role in mangrove herbivory.

We conducted correlation analysis between leaf vein density and LMA in emergent (67 species) and floating-leaved plants (28 species). In emergent plants, minor veins significantly negatively correlated with LMA and leaf dry mass (LDM), with or without phylogeny correction, resembling the patterns in terrestrial plants. However, neither major nor minor vein density in emergent plants correlated significantly with LDM, indicating that environmental filtering primarily acted on traits per area rather than on the whole-leaf level. In floating-leaved plants, neither major nor minor vein density showed significant correlations with LMA, reflecting reduced needs for water transport or mechanical support from veins. In contrast, LDM correlated negatively with major and minor vein density, but the correlation weakened after phylogenetic correction, confirming that shared ancestry among closely related species in floating-leaved plants affected the trait-trait correlation.

Moreover, the length of the upper row of stipulodes remained constant within the experimental conditions. These differences align with their respective habitat preferences. <em>Chara virgata</em> predominantly occurs in shallow water with large fluctuations of temperature and irradiance whereas <em>C. globularis</em> prefers greater depths with more stable temperature conditions. The study further demonstrates that vegetative parameters, such as stipulode length, can vary with environmental conditions, limiting their reliability for species identification.
