Abstract AR
تم دراسة الطحالب الملتصقة على ثلاثة نباتات مائية هي : Ceratophyllum demersum و Myriophyllum verticillatum و Potamogeton pectinatus في نهر الفرات بين سدة الهندية و مدينة الكوفة في وسط العراق في سبع محطات مختارة للمدة من صيف 2004 و لغاية ربيع 2005.
شخص 97 نوعا من هذه الطحالب، سادت فيها الطحالب الدايتومية بنسبة 73 % جاءت بعدها الطحالب تبعا لنوع النبات العائل، تنوعت كذلك على نفس النبات تبعا لمواسم الدراسة و محطاتها.
كانت الدايتومات هي السائدة من حيث الكتلة الحية و احتوت بعض أجناس الطحالب الدايتومية على أكبر عدد من الأنواع مثل Cymbella و Gomphonema و Nitzschia و Synedra.
أظهرت أغلب محطات الدراسة كثافة سكانية عالية.
Abstract EN
The epiphytic algae were studied on three aquatic plants (Ceratophyllum demersum, Myriophyllum verticillatum and Potamogeton pectinatus) from seven stations in Euphrates River between Hindia barrage and Al-Kufa city-Iraq, during summer 2004 and spring 2005.
A total of (97) species were identified, diatoms were dominant in their species number (73% from the total number), followed by chlorophyta, then cyanophyta and Euglenophyta.
Variations were recorded in the species number among the host macrophyte, as well as, among different seasons for each plant.
The biomass of epiphytic algae varied among the plant host, diatoms species were dominated and several genera have large number of species as Cymbella, Gomphonema, Nitzschia and Synedra.
Most studied stations showed high population density.
