Festuca were determined. We used successfully flow cytometry also for ploidy level estimation of other 28 additional, 1/2–2-year-old herbarium specimens. About 23 taxa and two spontaneous hybrids originating from natural populations from Austria, the Czech Republic, France, Hungary, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania and Slovakia were studied. The following ploidy levels were documented: F. alpestris 2n =2x; F. amethystina 2n =4x; F. billyi 2n =6x; F. brevipila 2n =6x; F. carnuntina 2n =6x; F. cinerea 2n =4x; F. degenii 2n =4x; F. duernsteinensis 2n =4x; F. duvalii 2n =4x; F. gracilior 2n =2x; F. lemanii 2n =6x; F. ovina subsp. guestfalica 2n =4x;cf.F. ovina × F. pallens 2n =2x; F. pallens 2n =2x,3x,4x; F. psammophila 2n =2x; F. pseudodalmatica 2n =4x; F. pseudovina 2n =2x; F. rupicola 2n =6x; F. stricta 2n =6x; F. vaginata subsp. dominii 2n =2x; F. vaginata subsp. vaginata 2n =2x; F. vaginata × F. valesiaca 2n =2x; F. valesiaca 2n =2x; F. versicolor subsp. versicolor 2n =2x; F. wagneri 2n =4x. Key words: dry material, flow cytometry, karyology, polyploidy. Introduction level became one of the basic classification and descrip- tion criteria. Without knowledge of ploidy level, almost Including about 360 species (Watson & Dallwitz, no systematic and taxonomic study can be done in this 1999), Festuca L. is one of the largest genera within group at present. the Poaceae family.

    By December 2007 Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic Ministry of the Environment of the Czech Republic Draft introduction Dear readers, you have in your hands the eleventh edition of the „Report on the State of Water Management in the Czech Republic in 2007“, briefly entitled as the „Blue Report“. This publication is a summary informational material which brings a complex information on the state of our waters and information on all water-management services which take care of water sources and their use by in- habitants and national economy. The flood situations in previous ten years made the public concentrate on flood-protection measures and recti- fication of flood damage, which is the reason you get a detailed information on projects and financial resources in this field. In 2007 next stages of programmes aimed at intensification of flood-protection measures in competence of Ministry of Agriculture started. Between the years 2007 – 2012 they will enable the implementation of events on watercourses, reservoirs, fishponds and in landscape in the amount of app. CZK 15 billion. Thanks to the support within the programmes of Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of the Environment there has also been a significant progress in the construction of sewerage systems and waste water treatment plants. As a result of this there has been a rise in the proportion of inhabitants connected to these systems, which exceeded 80 %. Over 95 % of the amount of discharged waste water is treated, which of course helps to improve the quality of water in our watercourses, as illustrated in the maps of cleaniness of water in comparison with the years 1990 – 2007.

Ujazdowskie 4, 00-478 Warsaw, Poland* THE STRUCTURE AND POPULATION DYNAMICS OF PSAMMOPHYTES ON INLAND DUNES I. POPULATIONS OF INITIAL STAGES ABSTRACT: The structure and the dynamics are discussed of pioneer populations of Corynephorus canescens (L.) P. B. and their role in the fixing of sands, and fonn~tion of initial communities. On flying dry sands, they show many features of expansive populations, but their . efficiency in fixing sands is fairly low, primarily because of their highly aggregated spatial structure. In more fertile biotopes, free growth of C. canescens populations is limited by the competitively stronger grasses: Festuca psammophila (Hackel) Krajina and Koeleria glauca (Schkuhr) DC. C. canescens has been found to h.ave almost completely retreated from areas coloriized by Polytrichum piliferum Schreb.

  • Little Vegetation Change During Two Decades in a Dry Grassland Complex in the Biosphere Reserve Schorfheide-Chorin (NE Germany)

Göttingen 2016. doi: 10.14471/2016.36.019, available online at www.tuexenia.de Little vegetation change during two decades in a dry grassland complex in the Biosphere Reserve Schorfheide-Chorin (NE Germany) Nur unwesentliche Vegetationsveränderungen in einem Trockenrasenkomplex im Biosphärenreservat Schorfheide-Chorin (Nordost-Brandenburg) nach zwei Jahrzehnten Elisabeth Hüllbusch1, *, L.

Here we analysed the vegetation change in a dry grassland complex (Gabower Hänge) in the Biosphere Reserve Schorfheide-Chorin (NE Brandenburg, Germany), one of the driest regions of the country. We resampled four 10 m² plots of each of four typical alliances (Festucion valesiacae, Koelerion glaucae, Armerion elongatae, Arrhenatherion elatioris) about 20 years after their original sampling with a recovery accuracy of approx. 10 m. The cover of vascular plants, bryophytes and lichens was recorded in both samplings. The overall compositional change was analysed with a detrended correpondence analysis (DCA). To interpret this change, we calculated unweighted mean Ellenberg indicator values for old and new plots.

The biosystematics of the Festuca valesiaca group is studied in Austria and the South Tyrol. The group belongs to the taxonomically difficult F. ovina agg. F. valesiaca subsp. valesiaca and subsp. parviflora are confirmed as diploid (2n = 14). F. stricta subsp. sulcata, subsp. stricta, subsp. carnuntina (TRACEY) PILS comb, et stat. nov., and subsp. trachyphylla are hexaploid (2n = 42) whereas F. stricta HOST subsp. bauzanina PILS subsp. nov. from the South Tyrol is octoploid (2n = 56). Karyological, anatomical, morpho- logical, ecological and chorological data form the basis for a discussion of the phylogeny of the F.
