TAILIEUCHUNG - Classification of plant communities along postfire succession in Pinus brutia (Turkish red pine) stands in Antalya (Turkey)
The paper deals with the classification of plant communities that appear along postfire succession of Pinus brutia forests (Turkish red pine). The research took place in the Antalya region in the southern part of Turkey. Samplings were performed in nine areas, with different periods after fire: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, 20, 40 years, and a mature forest with an estimated age of 60 years. | Turkish Journal of Botany Turk J Bot (2017) 41: 299-307 © TÜBİTAK doi: Research Article Classification of plant communities along postfire succession in Pinus brutia (Turkish red pine) stands in Antalya (Turkey) 1, 2 3 4 5 6 Ali KAVGACI *, Urban ŠILC , Saime BAŞARAN , Aleksander MARINŠEK , Mehmet Ali BAŞARAN , Petra KOŠIR , 7 8 1 2,9 Neslihan BALPINAR , Münevver ARSLAN , Özge DENLİ , Andraž ČARNI 1 Southwest Anatolia Forest Research Institute, Antalya, Turkey 2 Institute of Biology, Scientific Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Ljubljana, Slovenia 3 Erzurum Forest Regional Directory, Yakutiye, Erzurum, Turkey 4 Slovenian Forestry Institute, Ljubljana, Slovenia 5 Eastern Anatolia Forestry Research Institute, Erzurum, Turkey 6 Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies, University of Primorska, Koper, Slovenia 7 Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, Burdur, Turkey 8 Forest Soil and Ecology Research Institute, Eskişehir, Turkey 9 University of Nova Gorica, Nova Gorica, Slovenia Received: Accepted/Published Online: Final Version: Abstract: The paper deals with the classification of plant communities that appear along postfire succession of Pinus brutia forests (Turkish red pine). The research took place in the Antalya region in the southern part of Turkey. Samplings were performed in nine areas, with different periods after fire: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, 20, 40 years, and a mature forest with an estimated age of 60 years. Numerical classification and ordination analysis were used to determine the communities and to understand the temporal changes. The vegetation classification showed that separate plant communities can be distinguished along the succession line. It was found that immediately after fire semiruderal, subnitrophilous communities (Ajugo chamaepitys–Lactucetum serriolae, .
