  • I1.3 Arable Land with Unmixed Crops Grown by Low-Intensity Agricultural Methods
    European Red List of Habitats - Screes Habitat Group I1.3 Arable land with unmixed crops grown by low-intensity agricultural methods Summary Species-rich arable weed vegetation, characterised by now rare native and archaeophyte annual plants, is a survivor of ancient low-intensity agriculture and widely distributed across Europe but survives in abundance only in the mountainous areas of the Mediterranean region, particularly Italy. Since the intensification of agricultural practices in the middle of the 20th century, much of it subsidised by agri- environment funding, a significant decrease both in quantity and quality has been observed caused by excessive use of herbicides, biocides, and chemical fertilizers, improved seed-cleaning methods, sowing highly productive and competitive varieties of cereals, and removal of refugial habitats in the landscape due to merging of small fields into large ones. Such threats continue in many places, especially threatening surviving outliers. A large scale improvement of quantity and quality may require a revision of Common Agricultural Policy and agri-environment funding schemes and promotion of restoration initiatives. Synthesis Despite variable data quality, a lack of data from several countries and different interpretations of the habitat definition, the decreases in quantity and quality have been calculated using the territorial data from a sufficient number of countries to build an overall European average. Due to a large decrease in area over the last 50 years, the habitat qualifies for category Endangered under criterion A1. All countries except Italy (-20% to -40%) and Switzerland (-37.5%) reported a decrease in area between -50% and -99%. If the Italian and Swiss data were neglected, the overall assessment would result in category Critically Endangered.

Isolation of P. syringae pv. atrofaciens from weeds of wheat crops was carried out by classical microbiological methods. To identify isolated bacteria, their morphological, cultural, biochemical, and serological properties as well as fatty acids and Random Amplification of Polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR (Polymerase chain reaction) profiles with the OPA-13 primer were studied. Pathogenic properties were investigated by artificial inoculation of wheat plants and weed plants, from which bacteria were isolated. For the first time, bacteria that are virulent both for weeds and wheat were isolated from weeds growing in wheat crops.

We arrived more or less on time at 1.30 pm and the customs and immigration formalities were brief, so we were soon able to be greeted by Yiannis, our local guide and botanist and see our first new common birds, Hooded Crow and Wood Pigeon. It was only a 20 minute drive to our comfortable hotel and after quickly settling in we set off at 3.15 pm to walk to the Tombs of the Kings, about three quarters of a mile away, seeing Iris Gynandriris sisyrinchium near the hotel and our first Sardinian Warbler along the way. On arriving at the tombs we found a strong onshore wind was keeping any birds very low and in cover, but we did see a number of Crested Lark and European Wheatear, as well as less common species such as Spanish Sparrow and Cretzschmar’s Bunting, while brief views were also obtained of Isabelline Wheatear.

  • In the British Species of Papaver and Their Relation to Breeding Mechanisms and Ecology S
    Watsonia, 8, 263-276 (1971). 263 Studies on British Poppies 4. Some aspects of variability in the British species of Papaver and their relation to breeding mechanisms and ecology s. ROGERS Department of Biology, Queen Elizabeth College, London ABSTRACT The patterns of intra-specific variation in the British species of Papaver have been studied using mainly characters of the ripe capsules. The results, considered in relation to the breeding mechanisms of the species, show that in the outbreeding P. rhoeas variation is primarily between individuals and the variation within populations is generally such that any variation between them is not significant. In the self-compatible species, P. dubium and P. lecoqii, on the other hand, the variation between populations is generally highly significant. Some populations nevertheless show more internal variation than others and this appears to parallel a variation in the degree of inbreeding. INTRODUCTION The five species used in this study fall into two sections of the genus as classified by Fedde (1909), the section Orthorhoeades including P. rhoeas, P. dubium and P. Zecoqii whilst P. argemone and P. hybridum are included in the Argemono­ rhoeades. In many respects the species are all similar, being annual plants inhabiting open communities such as annual crops, waste ground and recently disturbed roadside verges. Yet, in the south of Britain at least, only P. rhoeas is universally abundant; P. dubium is only locally abundant, whilst the other three species are very localised in their distribution. The existence of large populations of P. rhoeas focusses attention upon its variability, especially in obvious characters such as flower colour, foliage colour and form, and capsule shape.

Received: 21 January 2020; Accepted: 25 February 2020; Published: 1 March 2020 Abstract: Knowledge on the emergence patterns of rare arable plants (RAP) is essential to design their conservation in Europe. This study hypothesizes that is possible to find functional groups with similar emergence patterns within RAP with the aim of establishing management strategies. Seeds of 30 different species were collected from Spanish arable fields and sown under two tillage treatments: (a) 1 cm depth without soil disturbance to simulate no-till, and (b) 1–10 cm depth with soil disturbance every autumn to simulate tillage to 10 cm depth. Two trials were established; the first trial being maintained for three seasons and the second for two seasons. Relative emergence in autumn, winter and spring was calculated each season. Afterwards, multivariate analysis was performed by K-means clustering and Principal Component Analysis to find groups of RAP species with similar emergence patterns. Four RAP groups were defined, and each was based on its main emergence season: autumn, winter, spring, or autumn-winter.

At the end of the floristic work, in total, 457 species were listed. Some of them are more important than others since they are endemic, amphiadriatic, of phytogeographic interest or included under the International Conven- tions of Berne and CITES, Regional and Italian Red List or the Directive 92/43/EEC.

Box 7, FI-00014 University of Helsinki, Finland *e-mail: [email protected] We aimed at assessing establishment risk for 25 arable weed species in a changing European climate for the period 2051–2080. An increase (0.3–46.7%) in the range size was projected for the 14 species and a decrease (1.2–67.4%) for the 11 species in a future climate. The inclusion of the land use data increased the explanatory power of the models. The greatest increases in range sizes were projected for Amaranthus retroflexus, Papaver hybridum and Fumaria parviflora, and declines for Sinapis arvensis, Cerastium semidecandrum and Chenopodium rubrum. Ap- plication of a more severe climate scenario (HadCM3A2) affected decline (0.5–18.5%) for 12 species and increase (2.2–31.5%) for 13 species in the range size projections compared with the less severe (HadCM3B2) scenario. Both model scenarios projected high percentage species loss in Mediterranean and temperate Europe, but high species gain in the Alps, Carpathians and in boreal Europe. The results suggest that even under moderate climate scenarios drastic changes in the weed establishment risk can be expected to take place in Europe in future. Key words: arable weed, climate change, climate envelope modelling, global warming Introduction Adaptation of agricultural production to climate change requires information on the future risks faced by pro- duction systems.
