Effect of the method of assessing and weighting abundance on the interpretation of the relationship between plant clonal traits and meadow management
Original language description
The role of clonal traits in a plant's response to changes in management of semi-natural grasslands is poorly known and the few studies examining their importance have yielded contradictory results. For a better understanding of the role of plant functional traits in determining competitive ability and clonal growth in response to early changes in management, we mowed and applied fertilizer to 22 wet meadows in the Zelezne hory Mts, Czech Republic. We used two methods of assessing abundance (plant coverand species frequency) to determine whether changes in frequency induced by changes in management are better predicted by clonal traits while changes in cover are mainly determined by competitive traits such as plant height. We evaluated (i) the response of individual species to changes in management and (ii) the response of the whole community, with and without taking abundance of individual plants into account, in order to separate the effect of local extinction and immigration from c
