| 英文摘要 | Submerged macrophytes cannot be utilized directly by zooplankton. However, vegetation can serve as an organic carbon resource for heterotrophic bacteria, which are themselves accessible to zooplankton. We therefore hypothesize that submerged macrophytes supply a carbon source to zooplankton by increasing the availability of food such as heterotrophic bacteria. Here, we used stable carbon isotope (C-13) labeling to trace the carbon flow from submerged macrophytes to zooplankton with a mesocosm experiment. The carbon stable isotope ratios of zooplankton and their potential food sources were analyzed in mesocosms planted with C-13-labeled Hydrilla verticillata (L. f.) Royle in comparison with the control in which plastic plants were planted. We found that all potential food resources of zooplankton, including phytoplankton, bacterioplankton, macrophyte-associated epiphyton and epibacteria, were significantly enriched with C-13 in the presence of C-13-enriched H. verticillata. Zooplankton were significantly more enriched with C-13 than phytoplankton, epiphyton and bacterioplankton but significantly less enriched with C-13 than epibacteria. Based on a stable isotopic mixing model, we found a macrophyte carbon contribution of 30.5% to epibacteria and 14.7% to zooplankton. Our results indicated that macrophytes might be used by zooplankton as a carbon resource, mainly via a pathway involving epibacteria attached to macrophytes. |
