Permanently flooded reed plants, rooted in the reduced sediment of the eutrophic Lake Biel (Switzerland), grow above ground more luxuriously than those do landward of the same stand. The high productivity is an absolute necessity to compensate for leaf loss, high carbohydrate loss during early development and even death of rhizomes, which should serve as vegetative propagation units in spring. The greater reserves of flooded reed rhizomes are used preferentially for an earlier development than the landward reed. In this habitat, flooded reed is in an unstable equilibrium and is extremely sensitive to an overstraining of its reserves.
