Plantago Coronopus

AbstractThe spread of alien species with the expansion of road networks and increasing traffic is a well-known phenomenon globally. Besides their corridor effects, road maintenance practices, such as the use of de-icing salts during winter facilitate the spread of halophyte (salt tolerant) species along roads. A good example is Plantago coronopus, a mainly coastal halophyte which has started spreading inland from the Atlantic and Mediterranean coastal habitats, recently reaching even Central European countries (e.g. Hungary). Here we studied the spread of this halophyte and tried to identify factors explaining its successful dispersion along roads, while also comparing native and non-native roadside occurrences with regard to altitude of the localities, size of roadside populations and frequency of roadside occurrences. We completed a comprehensive literature review and collected more than 200 reports of occurrence from roadsides spanning a total of 38 years. During systematic sampling the frequency of the species along roads was significantly higher in the Mediterranean (native area), than along Hungarian (non-native area) roads, however the average number of individuals at the sampling localities were very similar, and no significant difference could be detected. Using a germination experiment, we demonstrate that although the species is able to germinate even at high salt concentrations, salt is not required for germination. Indeed salt significantly decreases germination probability of the seeds. The successful spread of the species could most likely be explained by its remarkably high seed production, or some special characteristics (e.g. seed dimorphism) and its ability to adapt to a wide range of environmental conditions. Considering the recent and rapid eastward spread of P. coronopus, occurrences in other countries where it has not been reported yet can be predicted in coming years.

Groups of dry seeds of four annual plant species which occur in the Negev highlands were placed on a natural, dry or wet loess soil crust surface near Sede Boker on the Zin plateau during the autumn before the first rains, and on the first day with rain (1.15 mm). Ant nests ofMessor rugosuswere 8 to 14m from the experimental plot. The length of time it took these ants to collect the free or adhered seeds was observed. When the mucilaginous ombrohydrochoric seeds ofAnastatatica hierochuntica, Plantago coronopus, andCarrichtera annuaadhere to wet soil that remains moist, most of the seeds may have time to germinate in proper conditions before they are collected by ants. However, all but 5% of theReboudia pinnataseeds were collected within 2 h. The adhered seeds that had been moistened by wet soil crust and then dried, were collected by ants, in most cases, faster than when seeds and soil remained moist. Within 2 h none of the dry and free seeds situated on the dry soil surface remained. The first free seeds were collected after 7 min. Findings are discussed together with the mechanisms and strategies involved in seed dispersal by rain and germination of these plant species.

Plantago Coronopus

Magyarországi úthálózat vizsgálata során az atlanti-mediterrán elterjedésű Plantago coronopus L. intenzív terjedését tapasztaltuk. 2017–2019 között a fajt újabb 47 flóratérképezési kvadrát-ból mutattuk ki, amellyel 81-re nőtt előfordulásainak száma. Kimutattuk, hogy a gyorsforgalmi utak mellett a faj erős terjedése a főközlekedési utakat is elérte, ezen kívüli megjelenései egyelőre ritkák. Legnagyobb kiterjedésű és egyedsűrűségű állományai az útpadkák mechanikus és ozmotikus stressztől erősebben érintett (gyakran növényzetmentes) sávja mögötti részén találhatók, de néhány előfordulás ilyen helyeken kívül is ismert. 2013-tól ismert állományai közül több helyen ma is összefüggő tömegben van jelen, így a faj egyértelműen meghonosodott (de nem átalakító) neofitonnak tekinthető.
