The Pladias (Plant Diversity Analysis and Synthesis) Database of the Czech Flora Vegetation was developed by project team in 2014-2018 has been continuously updated since then.The flora section database contains critically revised information on vascular flora, including 13.6 million plant occurrence records, which are dynamically displayed maps, data 120 characteristics (traits, environmental associations other information), divided into sections (1) Habitus growth type, (2) Leaf, (3)...
We present the third edition of complete catalogue alien flora Czech Republic which follows 2002 and 2012 editions. It has been updated by incorporating new data collected over last decade reassessing current status taxa based on improved taxonomic ecological knowledge. All changes in taxon listing from version are documented explained an appendix. Based comprehensive sources, including recently developed Pladias database vegetation Archaeobotanical Database Republic, we list 1576 to this...
Research on the Czech flora has a long tradition and yielded large number of records occurrence plants. Several independent electronic databases were established during last three decades in order to collect manage these records. However, this fragmentation different characteristics each database strongly limit utilization analyses plant distribution data. Solving problems was one aims Centre Excellence PLADIAS (Plant Diversity Analysis Synthesis, 2014–2018), which is also source name...

These were produced by taxonomic experts based examined herbarium specimens, literature field...

† Background and Aims Molecular evidence for natural primary hybrids composed of three different plant species is very rarely reported.An investigation was therefore carried out into the origin a possible scenario rise sterile clone showing combination diagnostic morphological features separate, well-defined Potamogeton species.† Methods The sequences from maternally inherited cytoplasmic (rpl20-rps12) biparentally nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS) used to identify exact identity putative triple...
Despite their complex evolutionary histories, aquatic plants are highly underrepresented in contemporary biosystematic studies. Of them, the genus Callitriche is particularly interesting because of such features as wide variation chromosome numbers and pollination systems. However, taxonomic difficulties have prevented broader investigation this genus. In study we applied flow cytometry to for first time order gain an insight into processes genome size differentiation Flow complemented by...
Water-crowfoots (Ranunculus sect. Batrachium) are one of the taxonomically most intricate groups aquatic plants. Investigation its species is complicated by morphological reduction and phenotypic plasticity, as well frequent occurrence polyploidy hybridization, giving rise to numerous intergrading or morphologically undetectable taxa. We used, for first time in this group, flow cytometry gain an insight into evolutionary processes genome size differentiation Ranunculus Batrachium. Flow...
Alien plant invasions have been systematically studied for more than half a century and we already extensive scientific evidence of their negative role in the current biodiversity decline. Here aim to draw attention expansive plants, i.e. native species that exhibit similar ecological behaviour invasive alien being promoted by recent environmental changes. Some them can also various impacts on communities ecosystems. However, they much less species. Our goal was create an up-to-date...

Abstract The occurrence and diversity of Potamogeton hybrids was investigated in eastern North America, the region highest species world. For various reasons, however, existence this area has been largely overlooked. ITS direct sequencing RFLPs revealed four previously unknown hybrids, which are described as ×aemulans (P. bicupulatus × P. epihydrus), ×mirabilis gramineus oakesianus), ×versicolor epihydrus perfoliatus), ×absconditus perfoliatus richardsonii). These first confirmed involving...
