Assessment of aquatic ecosystem status using macrophyte species as key tools indicator for heavy metal pollution

Aquatic plants or macrophytes are beneficial to fresh water bodies because they produce oxygen, which assists with overall fresh water bodies functioning, and provide food and shelter for aquatic living organisms. A lack of aquatic plants in a freshwater bodies system where they are expected to occu...
