2021, Global Ecology and ConservationResponse of clonal versus non-clonal herbs to disturbance: Different strategies revealed
2020, Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and SystematicsCitation Excerpt :Disturbance-induced mortality in our experiment was very low for all but the flooding treatments. Eight days of submergence turned out to be a strong stress, which was likely connected with anoxic and post-anoxic injury in our experimental species that are from mesic environments (Klimešová, 1994). The advantage of clonal plants in terms of showing lower mortality than non-clonal plants in the flooding treatment was likely connected with the ability of clonal plants to form adventitious roots (Avi et al., 2016).
Vegetation development in subsurface flow constructed wetlands in the Czech Republic
2013, Ecological EngineeringCitation Excerpt :Also, Urtica was present only in very low densities in inflow areas where surface ponding occurred. This is in accordance with findings of Klimešová (1994) that Urtica does not survive long-term flooding, especially during the spring and summer. Another reason that affects the occurrence of Urtica in Phalaris stands is the fact that Urtica exhibits about twice higher maximum relative growth rate than Phalaris (Grime and Hunt, 1975; Grime et al., 1988).
A systematic review of published evidence linking wetland plants to water regime components
2012, Aquatic BotanyCitation Excerpt :Inundation timing also impacted the growth of wetland plants for all studies reviewed, but like establishment, optimal season for growth varied among studies. Studies variously found greater growth in response to flooding that occurred in: spring and summer compared to autumn and winter (Gerritsen and Greening, 1989), spring compared to summer (Robertson et al., 2001), autumn compared to summer (Klimesova, 1994), and late summer compared to early summer or autumn (Nohara and Kimura, 1997). Three out of four studies supported an effect of flood timing on plant diversity.
Differential responses of the floating-leaved aquatic plant Nymphoides peltata to gradual versus rapid increases in water levels
2011, Aquatic BotanyCitation Excerpt :Wetland plants are regularly or irregularly subjected to flooding which usually causes plant mortality or retards growth (Klimesova, 1994; He et al., 1999; Vervuren et al., 2003) and affects the composition, diversity (van der Valk et al., 1994; Bornette and Amoros, 1996; Riis and Hawes, 2002; Nicol et al., 2003; Van Geest et al., 2005) and distribution (Vervuren et al., 2003; Van Eck et al., 2004; Pennings et al., 2005) of macrophyte communities.
