phragmites/carbohydrate

The variations of the contents of water-soluble carbohydrate and nitrogen in L. chinensis and Ph. communis under different stocking rates were studied by fencing grazing experiment on L. chinensis grassland. The results indicated that the water-soluble carbohydrate content in the base stem of L.

OBJECTIVE Common reed (Phragmites communis Trin.) could potentially provide an alternative resource for silage; however, its silage quality is poor. The aim of this study was to investigate the factors in reed that contribute to poor quality and determine how the use of additives at ensiling could

In recent decades, constructed wetlands dominated by common reeds [Phragmites australis (CAV.) Trin. ex Steudel] have been utilized for treating nitrogen-rich wastewaters. Although plant harvest is a vegetation management in constructed wetlands for the purpose of improving nutrient removal,

Glycoprotein allergens of different carbohydrate composition can be separated by lectin interaction in affinity chromatography. The present study shows that several differences exist in the sugar moiety both within the species and between different grass species. Experiments with Bermuda grass and

The present study aims to investigate the effects of Phragmites communis and Zizania aquatica on rhizosphere soil enzyme activity and bacterial community structure in a surface flow constructed wetland (SFCW) for the treatment of domestic sewage from the Shanxi province of China. The basic physical

Nutrient enrichment, particularly nitrogen, is an important determinant of plant community productivity, diversity and invasibility in a wetland ecosystem. It may contribute to increasing colonization and dominance of invasive species, such as Phragmites australis, especially during wetland

A method that can be used to measure the initial decomposition rates of polysaccharides in sediment samples was developed. It uses toluene to specifically inhibit microbial uptake of carbohydrates without affecting extracellular hydrolysis of polysaccharides. Accumulating carbohydrates were

Phragmites is a cosmopolitan perennial emergent macrophyte that is distributed worldwide. In recent years, Phragmites has attracted attention for its potential use as roughage. Given the increasing demand for feed and the number of constructed wetlands (CWs) vegetated with Phragmites, Phragmites is

Phragmites sp. is present worldwide in treatment wetlands though the mechanisms involved in the phytoremediation remain unclear. In this study a quantitative proteomic approach was used to study the prompt response and adaptation of Phragmites to the textile dyeing pollutant, Acid Orange 7 (AO7).

Microbial communities play crucial roles in the global biogeochemical nitrogen cycle. To our knowledge, the compositions and functions of rhizosphere communities in riparian buffer strips have not been reported. In this study, rhizosphere soil samples were collected from herbs (Vetiveria
