Effects of the length of inundation periods on investment in tuber biomass and sexual reproduction byVallisneria spinulosaS.Z. Yan Ramets

Abstract: Key-words:China, submerged plant reproduction, Three Gorges Dam, vegetative reproduction, Yangtze River Modification and reductions in flows are reducing inundation times in some Yangtze River wetlands, potentially affecting the growth of submerged macrophytes. The effects of shortening the inundation period from April to October (control) to April to September (treatment) were tested on the production of surface and below-ground tubers and fruits in individual Vallisneria spinulosa ramets in microcosm e… Show more

“…Plants have a series of mechanisms for responding to changes in the environment (Wu et al, 2007;Fox et al, 2013Fox et al, , 2014, and developing a thorough understanding of the responses of submerged macrophytes to eutrophication is an important foundation for understanding their decline. The root system of submerged macrophyte is very important to macrophyte growth because it provides physical support and anchorage, absorbs nutrients, stores carbohydrates, and synthesizes growth regulators (Maitai and Newton, 1982;Wang et al, 2009).…”
