Popis | The study was conducted to assess the eff ect of conventional, integrated and organic management on diff erences in plant species composition, richness and diversity. The plants were studied in triads of orchards situated in three regions of the Czech Republic. Data about species occurrences were collected on 15 permanent plots in the tree rows and 15 plots between tree rows in each of the apple orchards during 2009. A total of 201 vascular plant species (127 native species, 65 archaeophytes, and 9 neophytes) were found. Management type and also diff erent regional conditions had a signifi cant eff ect on plant species composition and on diversity parameters of orchard spontaneous vegetation. Species richness and species pool was signifi cantly higher in the organic orchards than in the diff erently managed orchards. Management type had signifi cant eff ect on proportions of archaeophytes, and also neophytes in apple orchards. |
