Restoration of plant diversity on ditch banks: Seed and site limitation in response to agri-environment schemes
TL;DR: Investigating whether nature reserves (seed source) can improve species diversity on the surroundings and to what extent AES is improving this function showed that plant diversity decreased significantly with distance from source populations, and the effects of AES on seed and site limitation of the species.

TL;DR: Results from this study demonstrate that reindeer may counteract a potentially negative impact on seed limitation from their grazing by returning viable seeds in their faeces, but in Finnmark, northern Norway, this effect is only marginal, relates only to a very few species and individuals and shows ecological scale and context dependence.
Journal Article
Regional importance of Alnus pollen as an aeroallergen: a comparative study of Alnus pollen counts from Worcester (UK) and Poznań (Poland).
Matt Smith,Jean Emberlin,Alicja Stach,Magdalena Czarnecka-Operacz,Dorota Jenerowicz,Wojciech Silny +5 more
TL;DR: The amount of Alnus pollen released into the atmosphere in places such as Poznan may increase its impact on the population and make it one of the more important aeroallergens present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in the abundance of fungal endophytes in fescue grasses along altitudinal and grazing gradients
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the distribution of Epichloe festucae infection in natural populations of three fescue grasses, Festuca rubra, F. ovina and F. vivipara, on mountains in northern Sweden to determine whether infection frequency varied with reindeer Rangifertarandus grazing pressure and altitude.
Dissertation
Natural regeneration of broadleaved tree species in southern Sweden
TL;DR: The objective of the present thesis was to examine the effects of silvicultural treatments and seed dispersal from surrounding stands on the establishment of natural regeneration of broadleaved tree species in southern Sweden and found that regeneration trcatmcnts can be used to establish of naturally regene.
