Potential effect of macrophyte beds on number of akinetes of blue-green algae in littoral of a body of water

  • Published:
Contemporary Problems of Ecology Aims and scope

Abstract

The distribution of the resting stages of blue-green algae (akinetes) in bottom sediments of the littoral of a small Siberian water reservoir has been studied. The irregularity (mosaicism) of the distribution of akinetes in the bottom sediments of the littoral has been demonstrated and the possible mechanisms of its formation have been analyzed.
