Aquatic plant traits and impact of plant management and herbivores (ESF 6)

Aquatic plants can be removed by aquatic herbivores as well as management, such as mowing.

Plant species may differ in their sensitivity and tolerance to both forms of removal.

In this study we synthesize what plant traits are involved in this and how these differ among plant species.
