Several studies have demonstrated the influence of submerged macrophytes on eutrophication or water quality with different results. To assess the effect of a submerged macrophyte, one should evaluate the ecosystem throughout a year in combination with the growth curve of the plant. The growth curve of Potamogeton crispus was determined from seven investigations from October 2002 to May 2003 in a reservoir with 70% of area covered by P. crispus. The effects of the grass on water quality were assessed by analyses of fluctuations in total phosphorus (TP), phytoplankton, and pH in the reservoir and in five other reservoirs with 0~30% of areas covered by P. crispus, Myriophyllum spicatum or a combination of both in July and October 2002, and March and May 2003. All six reservoirs are located in the Yellow River Delta (38° N, 118° E). The grass growth equation from October to May was regressed as GB=34.1×e^(0.018t) (p<0.002), where GB refers to the wet weight of grass per m^2, and t refers to days after germination. The equation from March to May was GB=25001+e^(14.97-0.08338t)(p<0.000). The fluctuations of TP, phytoplankton, and pH in six reservoirs exhibited (1) maximum TP in the reservoir dominated by P. crispus (RDP) occurred in March rather than October; (2) maximum cell abundance and maximum biomass of phytoplankton in RDP and the reservoirs with more than 25% of area covered by macrophytes occurred in October rather than in July; (3) of the values of phytoplankton in March, the RDP contained the highest biomass, dominated by diatoms; (4) annual average TP and cell abundance of phytoplankton in RDP did not differ significantly from the other five reservoirs; (5) annual average cell abundance of phytoplankton correlated significantly positive with TP (p<0.005) in all reservoirs, and annual average TP correlated significantly positive with chloride concentration (Cl) (p<0.005); (6) submerged macrophytes could stabilize pH and appreciably increased annual average pH; (7) in reservoirs except for the grassless and shallow one, phytoplankton cell abundance correlated significantly with zooplankton abundance. The result indicates that the submerged macrophyte P. crispus grows mainly from March to May when the temperature ranges from 7 to 25℃, with a maximum biomass of 2.5kg/m^2. Two species of submerged macrophytes in these reservoirs can only delay the platforms in the yearly curves of TP and abundance of phytoplankton while buffering the effect of eutrophication; they cannot control eutrophication because their decay or germination may increase pelagic nutrients in late autumn and early spring during diatom blooms. The trophic state is regulated by the concentration of TP. Excessive seasonal blooms of the grass can decrease the circulation of nutrients and reduce ecosystem productivity. Moreover, there is a risk that flourishing submerged macrophytes could increase pH so much that it might cause a change in ecosystem structure. To reduce the coverage of P. crispus in a reservoir by fish predation, both herbivorous fish and omnivorous fish should be used because of the high growth rate of the grass in spring.
