The adaptation of cornflower in different compartments of the agricultural landscape

International audience; Agrosystems are among habitats most affected by the decline of biodiversity. This decline isrelated to the intensification of agricultural practices carried out since the 50s (simplified rotations,fertilizer and pesticide use; ...). The study of the weed flora shows still less developed plantcommunities. Currently, there is evidence of the regression of the weed flora and especiallyspecies such as cornflower (Cyanus segetum. L). In western Europe, cornflower seems to bepresent in the field only. In our investigation, we tried to determine the factors that influence thepresence of cornflower in the different compartments of a field and its border.
