Responses of a Louisiana oligohaline marsh plant community to nutrient loading and disturbance
… 2004 to September 2006. Spartina patens and Schoenoplectus americanus are co-dominant plant species in this marsh. Low N-loading additions resulted in increased S. patens cover. However, increased N loading did not result in a shift in plant community composition despite S. americanus …

Application of the ³H-Leucine incorporation technique for quantifying rates of bacterial secondary production associated with decaying wetland plant litter
… litter of <em>Typha angustifolia</em>, <em>Schoenoplectus validus</em>, and <em>Phragmites australis</em>. Incorporation of 3H-leucine into protein exhibited a biphasic saturation curve, with lower apparent K<sub>m</sub> values ranging from 400 nM to 4.2 μM. Upper apparent K<sub>m</sub> …

… and yarn. Bast fibres from Typha sp. leaves and Schoenoplectus sp. stems were used to make these artefacts, although bast fibres – likely from stems of an unidentified species from Apocynaceae (Asclepias sp.) plant family were used in a few artefacts.. Remains of the ‘epidermis’ of bast fibres in …
