MACROPHYTES AS BIOINDICATOR IN BICHHIYA RIVER, REWA (M.P.), INDIA
Journal Title: International Journal of Biological Innovations - Year 2020, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study was aimed to analyze the macrophytes as bioindicators in Bichhiya River at Rewa. The study was conducted over a period of one year from January 2019 to December 2019 at 3 different sampling stations selected for the purpose in Rewa, a district of Madhya Pradesh, India. The physico-chemical parameters of water such as temperature, pH, DO, BOD, COD, hardness which are most useful for the prediction of distribution of macrophytes were analysed. A sum of 30 species of macrophytes was identified. Presence of macrophytes (1) reflects the nutrients enrichment and organic loading and (2) indicates the water pollution. Abundance and high density of Ceratophyllum demersum, Nitella hyalina, Chara vulgaris, Potamogeton pectinata indicated the enrichment of nutrients and high organic loading.
