The impact of Norway spruce planting on herb vegetation in the mountain beech forests on two bedrock types
Original language description
Planting of spruce on the sites of natural beech forests is very common across Europe. Its effect on ground vegetation is assumed to be strong on poorly buffered soils. We investigate associated patterns of herb layer composition and diversity on crystalline and carbonate parent rock in the Western Carpathians. We analysed a series of vegetation plots with respect to the partial relationship of spruce cover with vascular understorey species (ordination), to the affinity of plant species to sample groupswith different cover of spruce and to plant diversity and species turnover within these groups. In our data set spruce and beech were the most important tree species with the closest association with understorey composition and their covers explained similar proportions of herb layer variability. Species composition was significantly different under spruce canopies, but species richness was not lower (crystalline region) or even higher (carbonate region), and overall diversity of vascul
