Myriophyllum spicatum was cultivated in a low salinity area of Hangzhou Bay (salinity 5.8-6.5), from August to October in 2016, to evaluate the abilities of its nutrient bioextraction and microalgae growth inhibition. During the 72-day cultivation period, M. spicatum had a specific growth rate (SGR) of 6.23% day(-1) and increased 20 fold in biomass (wet weight). Tissue C, N and P assimilation quantities of M. spicatum were found to be 3279.39 kg, 360.61 kg and 26.97 kg, respectively. The concentration of NH4-N, NO3-N, NO2-N and PO4-P after M. spicatum cultivation was decreased by 47.92%, 58.28%, 36.40% and 55.57%, respectively. The phyto-plankton density was decreased from 1064.60 x 10(4) cells L-1 to 12.85 x 10(4) cells L-1. These results indicated that cultivation of M. spicatum can help in nutrient bioextraction and microalgae growth inhibition in low salinity marine water bodies.
