Abstract:

Algal bloom caused by water eutrophication has still been a serious issue for the world now. Allelopathic substances released by plants have become an efficient and low-consumption control method of algal bloom,which is widely favored by domestic and international scholars. First,the effects of different aquatic plants and terrestrial plants on Microcystis aeruginosa growth are reviewed. Then,plant species,research methods,allelopathy effects,the allelopathy mechanism,and allelopathy characteristics are summarized. Further,the issues existing in the study of phytoallelopathic inhibition of algae are put forward. Finally,the development direction and prospect of plant algal inhibition effect are discussed.

Key words: allelopathy, aquatic plants, terrestrial plants, Microcystis aeruginosa, algal inhibiting mechanism
