Mississippi Flora. Iv. Dicotyledon Families With Aquatic Or Wetland Species, Samuel B. Jones Jr. Jan 1975

Mississippi Flora. Iv. Dicotyledon Families With Aquatic Or Wetland Species, Samuel B. Jones Jr.

Gulf and Caribbean Research

The first paper in this series treated some of the monocotyledon families with aquatic or wetland species (Jones 1974). The primary aim of this paper is to improve our knowledge of some of the dicotyledon families with aquatic and wetland plants in Mississippi. Hopefully, this paper will be reviewed and criticized by many, and corrected before the proposed Guide to the Flora of Mississippi is published.


Removal Of Phosphorus From Static Sewage Effluent By Waterhyacinth, W Harold Ornes Dec 1974

Removal Of Phosphorus From Static Sewage Effluent By Waterhyacinth, W Harold Ornes

W. Harold Ornes

Waterhyacinth [Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms] was grown in static sewage effluent during May to July 1974 in outdoor concrete containers with a capacity of 760 liters and a surface area of 1.66 m². The plants were removed weekly from one-half of the surface area of the containers during 5-wk growth periods. Tissue phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N), plant productivity, and some parameters of water quality were measured. A maximum uptake of 5,500 µg of P/g dry weight of plant material occurred when the level of orthophosphate phosphorus (available P) in the effluent was 1.1 µg/ml. Phosphorus in the effluent was …
