Study of some growth traits of common reed )Phragmites australis( in Iran

Most of the research on Phragmites australis is restricted to sites on the European continent even though P. australis occurs abundantly in many regions in the Asian and other continents under different climatic and habitat conditions. The populations used in this study were collected from different parts of Iran. All these populations were grown in the same conditions in experimental field, lo...

EM-A1gorithm as a too1 for structure analysis of stands of the common reed ( Phragmites australis)

27 r Ostendorp, W. and Möller, J., 1991. EM-algorithm as a tool for structure analysis of stands of the common reed (Phragmites australis). Ecol. Modelling, 53: 27-38. The frequency distributions of morphometric and mechanical properties of randomly sampled stalks of seven reed stands at Lake Constance-Untersee are analysed by the Estimation-Maximisation Algorithm. The aim was to look for compo...

Genetic Diversity of the Reed ( Phragmites Australis ) Studied by Pcr - Rapd Method

Cryptic invasion by a non-native genotype of the common reed, Phragmites australis, into North America.

Cryptic invasions are a largely unrecognized type of biological invasion that lead to underestimation of the total numbers and impacts of invaders because of the difficulty in detecting them. The distribution and abundance of Phragmites australis in North America has increased dramatically over the past 150 years. This research tests the hypothesis that a non-native strain of Phragmites is resp...

Vegetative Ecological Characteristics of Restored Reed (Phragmites australis) Wetlands in the Yellow River Delta, China

In this study, we compared ecological characteristics of wetland vegetation in a series of restoration projects that were carried out in the wetlands of Yellow River Delta. The investigated characteristics include plant composition structure, species diversity and community similarity in three kinds of Phragmites australis wetlands, i.e. restored P. australis wetlands (R1, R2, R3 and R4: restor...
