Each berry contains many seeds but seedlings are rarely seen in Scotland. Thus, it is of interest to establish whether the lack of seedlings reflects a low production of viable seeds, their dormancy status, or germination requirements or seed longevity. Samples of V. myrtillus berries were collected from moorland in the east Grampian mountains, Scotland. Each berry contained about 70 seeds. Small seeds did not germinate but large fresh seeds achieved over 80% germination in laboratory tests. Seeds stored dry for one year did not lose viability. Seedsstored in moist cold conditions (to mimic conditions in the soil over winter) lost viability progressively and none germinated after about 43 weeks. Germination occurred over the range 15–24°C. These seed germination and longevity characteristics may currently severely limit the window of opportunity for germination of seeds of V. myrtillus in Scotland and have implications for the spread of V. myrtillus if average temperatures increase.","PeriodicalId":365547,"journal":{"name":"Botanical Journal of Scotland","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134165714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It currently includes 59 species of vascular and lower plants in Scotland, most of which are also biodiversity priority species under the UK Biodiversity Action Plan. The programme combines laboratory and field research with hands-on management to achieve effective action for rare and threatened plants. Examples of action for three priority species are given: Linnaea borealis L., Pilularia globulifera L. and a group of stipitate hydnoid fungi. A major distribution study has been undertaken of Pilularia globulifera and positive conservation management has been undertaken at several sites. Work on the genetics of Linnaea borealis has given insights into its conservation management, and recent felling of timber in one plantation has provided a significant opportunity to learn more about the ecological requirements of the species. A recent national survey of stipitate hydnoid fungi has led to proposals for further research into the ecological requirements of this group. Plantlife's priorities for future work are outlined, including the launch of a new conservation forum, Plantlife Link Scotland.","PeriodicalId":365547,"journal":{"name":"Botanical Journal of Scotland","volume":"4999 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130333000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Plants of Cerastium nigrescens showed a Deevey type II curve and mature plants had a half-life of 3.8 years. Plants of Arenaria norvegica ssp. norvegica showed a Deevey type I curve with high mortality after flowering in the second year. There was some evidence of increased mortality during droughts but this had little impact on the total population. Seed production and seedling recruitment for both species was good throughout the study period. Seed bank measurements ranged from 12–13 m2 for Cerastium nigrescens and 24–43 m-2 for Arenaria norvegica ssp. norvegica. The study showed that there was no immediate threat to the populations of the two species but because of their isolated occurrence they are susceptible to extinction and should be carefully monitored.","PeriodicalId":365547,"journal":{"name":"Botanical Journal of Scotland","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128907335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The industrial wastes were redistributed in a spoil heap about 300 m × 300 m in area. Drainage water from the heap was known to have high concentrations of chromium. An attempt to establish birch on the spoil heap's slopes has been partially successful but many of the trees were very stunted. Soil analyses showed that hexavalent chromium toxicity was the most likely cause of the poor birch growth and this was confirmed by an experiment on birch seedlings. Acute plant chromium toxicity is a rare phenomenon in Britain where it is always associated with anthropogenic soils. The possibility of the site's toxicity to humans is discussed and it is concluded that the site is potentially hazardous to health.","PeriodicalId":365547,"journal":{"name":"Botanical Journal of Scotland","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117205991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results are presented from four recent surveys: (i) fungal diversity in conifer plantations, (ii) hydnoid (‘tooth’) fungi in coniferous forests, (iii) grassland fungi, (iv) fungal survey of the Mar Lodge Estate. These surveys have substantially improved knowledge of the conservation status of a number of threatened taxa, and have also provided insights into patterns of fungal diversity at a range of scales. The results indicate that some of the fungal communities of Scotland, such as those associated with unimproved grasslands, are of international conservation importance. The implications of the survey results for conservation management are discussed, and suggestions are made regarding priorities for future work. In particular, there is a need to provide conservation managers with guidance on how fungal conservation can be achieved in practice.","PeriodicalId":365547,"journal":{"name":"Botanical Journal of Scotland","volume":"191 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132591175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Restricted to a few parts of the world where cool, oceanic climatic conditions prevail, Britain holds approximately 13% of the total global resource of blanket bog, of which the bogs of Caithness and Sutherland form the largest and most intact area. In recent times, extensive areas of the peatlands of Caithness and Sutherland have been damaged – principally through drainage and forestry. In 1994, the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) purchased Forsinard Estate in the heart of the peatlands as part of a EU LIFE funded project on blanket bog conservation. In partnership with Scottish Natural Heritage and Caithness and Sutherland Enterprise, this four year RSPB led project promoted a number of initiatives on awareness raising and ecotourism as well as a range of practical demonstrations on restoring damaged blanket bog. More recently, a follow up LIFE Peatlands Project was launched in 2001 where RSPB extended the partnership to include SNH, Forest Enterprise, Plantlife and the Forestry Commission. This paper gives an over-view of the partnership approach to the management and restoration of damaged blanket bog in Caithness and Sutherland.","PeriodicalId":365547,"journal":{"name":"Botanical Journal of Scotland","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121928947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
