Description
Yangyun Liu and co-authors measured in 2025 how summer flooding changes hormones and enzymes in a rare river plant during its autumn recovery. Leftover groups of the plant live on Yangtze River islands, sleep through summer floods, and regrow in autumn. Plants were flooded under controlled depth and length.
Flooded plants showed higher levels of three growth hormones and lower levels of a fourth during recovery. Two enzymes that drive carbon capture rose a great deal, while a third fell. Hormone and enzyme changes were linked in the analysis. The authors read the pattern as boosting light-based growth and easing breathing costs, which aids regrowth. Restored banks, they say, need yearly flooding.
