Abstract

Roads are known to support the dispersal of plant species, especially along elevational gradients. We compared the elevational distributions of four expansive native synanthropic plant species along roadsides in the Orlické hory Mountains (Czech Republic) over a 40-year period. Two species (Anthriscus sylvestris and Chaerophyllum aromaticum) have distribution optima in lowlands and foothills, whereas the other two psychrophilic species (Anthriscus nitidus and Chaerophyllum hirsutum) have distribution optima at relatively high elevations. We found that the average elevation of these species, except for Anthriscus sylvestris, rose by 23–74 m. The maximum occurrence elevation of all the species rose by 98–248 m, except for Chaerophyllum hirsutum, which was limited by the maximum elevation of the studied area. On the other hand, the presence of psychrophilic Anthriscus nitidus and Chaerophyllum hirsutum in lower elevations stagnated or even decreased. This shift cannot be attributed only to changes in traffic frequency and appears to be consistent with changes associated with a warming climate.
Our results suggest that climate change may in some cases influence the spread of synanthropic expansive plants, and that roadsides of mountain roads may serve as early detection sites for shifts in species distributions, which can be attributed to changes in climate.
气候变暖对公路沿线广阔的本地同生植物的海拔迁移产生影响:四个物种的实例
众所周知,道路有助于植物物种的传播,尤其是沿着海拔梯度的道路。本文比较了捷克orlick hory山区4种原生共生植物近40年的海拔分布特征。两种(sylvestris和Chaerophyllum aromaticum)在低地和丘陵地区分布最佳,而另外两种(Anthriscus nitidus和Chaerophyllum hirsutum)在相对高海拔地区分布最佳。结果表明,除炭疽菌(Anthriscus sylvestris)外,其他树种的平均海拔均上升了23 ~ 74 m。除毛蕨(Chaerophyllum hirsutum)受研究区最高海拔限制外,所有树种的最高发生海拔均上升了98 ~ 248 m。另一方面,在低海拔地区,嗜冷性牛炭疽菌和毛毛毛菌的存在停滞甚至减少。这种变化不能仅仅归因于交通频率的变化,而且似乎与气候变暖有关的变化是一致的。我们的研究结果表明,气候变化可能在某些情况下影响共生扩张植物的传播,并且山路的路边可能是物种分布变化的早期检测点,这可归因于气候变化。

期刊介绍: Acta Oecologica is venue for the publication of original research articles in ecology. We encourage studies in all areas of ecology, including ecosystem ecology, community ecology, population ecology, conservation ecology and evolutionary ecology. There is no bias with respect to taxon, biome or geographic area. Both theoretical and empirical papers are welcome, but combinations are particularly sought. Priority is given to papers based on explicitly stated hypotheses. Acta Oecologica also accepts review papers.
