With the increasing eutrophication of the aquatic environments, cyanobacteria blooms caused certain damage to the animals and plants in the aquatic environments. In this experiment, two species were selected from six species of submerged macrophytes, the experimental conditions were changed to achieve the best inhibitory effect on Microcystis aeruginosa, and oxidative damage analysis was carried out. The experiment results demonstrated that the inhibition rate of Vallisneria natans and Ceratophyllum demersum was nearly 100% at the concentration of 3 g/L after 15 days of anaerobic soaking extract. In addition, the longer the soaking time of the two submerged macrophytes, the weaker the photosynthesis effect, and the lower the chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, the more obvious the inhibition effect on M. aeruginosa. Lipid peroxidation injury of M. aeruginosa could be reflected by malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration. The MDA concentration in the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group. Results showed that V. natans and C. demersum could induce oxidative damage in M. aeruginosa. It was also observed that the secondary metabolites produced by V. natans were mainly fatty acids (e.g., the oxidative acid was 6.92 w/%, and the successful acid was 9.85 w/%) which inhibited M. aeruginosa in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The main secondary metabolites in C. demersum were hydroxyl acids (e.g., the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylacetic acid was 24.33 w/%), which could inhibit the algae through allelopathy. This study provided reference for submerged macrophytes to inhibit M. aeruginosa under different conditions.
