Invasive Aquatic Weeds Suppress Predator–Prey Cascades: Evidence from a Mesocosm Study
Submerged macrophytes can profoundly influence interactions between aquatic predators and their prey due to changes in foraging efficiencies, pursuit time and swimming behaviors of predator–prey participants. Water hyacinth, <i>Eichhornia crassipes</i> (Mart.) Solms-Laub. (Pontederiaceae...
