Élaboration du plan de gestion de l’espace naturel sensible des versants de Vuillafans et Châteauvieux-les-Fossés
The value of the “Espace Naturel Sensible des versants de Châteauvieux et Vuillafans” is based on a natural habitats mosaic that support an originality and a diversity of flora and entomological that we want to preserve. However, in dry grasslands which are habitats of the European community, we can see gradually the emergence of shrub and reforestation due to the difficult to mechanize hills and very fragmented private lands that favored the abandonment of agricultural practices on the slopes. To efficiently program the management of this area, a management plan, which is now a recognize tools for managers of natural areas, was written. To achieve the management plan objectives, the privat…
Growth and development of Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. under different trophic conditions
Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. (common ragweed) is an annual weed regarded as an invasive plant in France. This species can be found in a large range of soil types with regard to texture, pH or nutrient contents. Furthermore, its tolerance to different forms of stress increases its spread potential. This work was undertaken to evaluate the development and growth of common ragweed under different trophic conditions in a common garden. Three cohorts of 15 plants per treatments were sown in spring 2013 and the effects of nitrogen and irrigation were compared on each sowing dates. During the first weeks, vegetative appearance is strongly linked with the sum of temperature. For the first cohort, the…
