The submerged plant Vallisneria natans plays an important role in the remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-contaminated sediments. In this study, V. natans and sediments were collected from different V. natans natural vegetation zones, and sediment mesocosms were set up for phytoreme...
