摘要: Abstract The effects of current velocity on the photosynthesis submerged angiosperm Callitriche stagnalis Scop. were investigated by CO 2 -exchange in a closed water-flow system. Apparent was stimulated increasing velocities and maximum rate reached at 8–12 mm s −1 . Increasing to 20 40 reduced photosynthetic rates 5–30% 13–29%, respectively. It is suggested that inhibition high caused agitation incubated plant material. ecological significance this result discussed briefly.
