The investigations on vegetation cover in the Proszowice Plateau (Małopolska Upland, southern Poland) in 1997-1999 were carried out. This vast area (770 sq. km), hitherto not in this respect investigated, is covered with arable fields in 80%.

The use of chronosequences in studies of ecological succession and soil development [PDF]
1. Chronosequences and associated space-for-time substitutions are an important and often necessary tool for studying temporal dynamics of plant communities and soil development across multiple time-scales.

Air temperature changes due to altitude above sea level in the Northern Ural Mountains
The research is devoted to an urgent modern problem: the identification of temperature factors that limit the distribution and survival of plants in the mountainous conditions of the Northern Urals.

Spatial Scaling in Model Plant Communities
We present an analytically tractable variant of the voter model that provides a quantitatively accurate description of beta-diversity (two-point correlation function) in two tropical forests.

Building bridges: mycelium–mediated plant–plant electrophysiological communication
AbstractWhether through root secretions or by emitting volatile organic compounds, plant communication has been well-documented. While electrical activity has been documented in plants and mycorrhizal bodies on the individual and ramet, electrical propagation as a means of communication between plants has been hypothesized but understudied.

Syntaxonomical classification of wet woodlands with Picea abies in Slovakia [PDF]
Wet woodlands with domination of Norway spruce are floristically and ecologically distinctive element of coniferous forest vegetation. However, specialized studies on this vegetation are considerably rare. In this survey the syntaxonomical classification

Plant–soil feedbacks help explain plant community productivity
AbstractPlant productivity often increases with species richness, but the mechanisms explaining this diversity–productivity relationship are not fully understood. We tested if plant–soil feedbacks (PSF) can help to explain how biomass production changes with species richness. Using a greenhouse experiment, we measured all 240 possible PSFs for 16 plant

The dynamic of plant communities is strongly influenced by biological interactions. We studied the effects of Eichhornia azurea on the growth of the free-floating macrophytes Eichhornia crassipes, Salvinia minima, Salvinia auriculata and Limnobium ...

Phyllosphere microbiology with special reference to diversity and plant genotype [PDF]
The phyllosphere represents the habitat provided by the aboveground parts of plants, and on a global scale supports a large and complex microbial community.
