Plant species over-occupancy indicates river valleys are natural corridors for migration
Original language description
River valleys are considered natural corridors for migration of plant species, however, there is a lack of studies confirming higher colonisation rates of plant species in these areas. We compare plant species richness between ancient and recent forests (developed during and after the nineteenth century) and those located in a river valley with those located outside the river valley. We hypothesise that, close to a river, higher plant species richness will be associated with recent forests, thus indicating a higher colonisation rate. The study area includes parts of the Elbe River Valley and a landscape outside the river valley in the Czech Republic. We sampled an equal number of recent and ancient forests, but lying at different distances from the river. We used generalised linear models to test the effect of distance from the river in dependence upon forest continuity (recent and ancient forest) on two plant species richness categories, i.e. richness of forest species and overall species richness.
