- Abstract
This document is an editorial published in Frontiers in Plant Science titled "The performance and adaptation of aquatic plants under global changes." The editorial discusses the impact of global changes, such as intensified human activities and climate change, on aquatic plants. These changes can lead to habitat disturbances, including eutrophication, algal blooms, pollution, habitat fragmentation, extreme hydrological events, warming, and biological invasions. These disturbances can result in plant loss, expansion of harmful algal blooms, and loss of vulnerable species, affecting the ecosystem's capacity to support ecological functions and services. The editorial emphasizes the need for further research to assess the impact of global change disturbances on aquatic plant performance and adaptation strategies and their cascading effects on freshwater ecosystems.
