CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE STUDY OF ASPLENIO RUTAEMURARIAE-MELICETUM CILIATAE ASSOCIATION IN THE VAŞCĂU PLATEAU (CODRU-MOMA MOUNTAINS)
Journal Title: Natural Resources and Sustainable Development - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The work presents a phytocoenologic study of Asplenio rutae-murariae-Melicetum ciliatae association Soó 1962 in the Vaşcău Plateau in Bihor County. This association was reported in the Rasteţului Hill on Vaşcău Plateau, where a number of five phytocoenological relevées were carried out in 2011. The phytocoenoses of this association were analyzed considering the floristic composition, life forms, floristic elements, karyotype and ecological indices. The floristic composition of the association, totalizing 57 species is dominated by calcio-phillic elements with low preferences on soil moisture. An important coenotic role is played by xerophytes and xero-mesophytes species specific to the Seslerio-Festucion pallentis alliance, Stipio pulcherrimae-Festucetalia pallentis order and Festuco-Brometea class. These phytocoenoses have low economic significance, having in their floristic composition some forage plants: Festuca valesiaca, Sanguisorba minor, Brachypodium pinnatum, Trifolium montanum and medicinal ones: Thymus comosus, Hypericum perforatum, Sedum acre.
