Abstract The distribution of invasive moss Campylopus introflexus (Hedw.) Brid. may have negative influence on natural restoration of plant cover in peatlands due to the accumulation of heavy decomposing residues and suppression of the growth of microorganisms in peat. Species composition of fungal communities and seasonal succession under mosses C. introflexus and Polytrichum strictum, vascular plant Calluna vulgaris and bare peat were studied in two naturally regenerating disturbed peatlands in Lithuania. Cultivable fungi were isolated from peat and enumerated by applying the serial dilution plate technique. A total of 66 species of fungi ascribed to 21 genera (among these 30 species from 13 genera under moss C. introflexus) were identified. Fungus species of the genera Penicillium, Trichoderma, Mortierella and Paecilomyces dominated. The highest diversity of fungal species was found in Laukėsa under Calluna vulgaris. Differences in the structure of fungal communities were found in Mūšos Tyrelis in autumn and in Laukėsa in spring. Significant differences in species diversity under various plants were obtained only in summer. The Gleason species diversity index for peat under C. introflexus was not very high (1.77–2.58) in different seasons. Fungal species composition under moss C. introflexus did not show pronounced characteristic peculiarities compared to other plants and was similar to that in bare peat. The obtained data are important for the prediction of fungal community succession in peatlands and biodegradation level of plant residues.

Abstract Oenothera albipercurva Hudziok was reported for the first time in the Lithuanian flora. It is tenth Oenothera species noted in Lithuania. It was found in the association Cladonio-Pinetum nearby Merkinė town in the southern part of the country in 2005. According to the early stage of development (June), fully-flowering plants were very sparse. Oenothera albipercurva is of hybridogenous origin (O. biennis L. × O. ammophila Focke), discovered and reported by Renner in 1937 from Germany, currently distributed in Central and Eastern Europe. It resembles O. ammophila by its narrow leaves and divergent sepal tips, but can be easily distinguished mainly by its clearly larger flowers (petal length 15–26 mm instead of 12–18 mm) and red papillae on the underside of leaves. Some examples of significant mistakes found in the descriptions of this species in literature and main diagnostic characters are given.
摘要在立陶宛植物区系中首次报道了Oenothera albipercurva Hudziok。这是在立陶宛发现的第十个欧诺瑟亚种。它于2005年在该国南部merkinnik镇附近的Cladonio-Pinetum协会被发现。根据发育早期(6月),完全开花的植物非常稀少。Oenothera albipercurva是杂种起源(O. biennis L. × O. ammophila Focke),由Renner于1937年在德国发现并报道,目前分布于中欧和东欧。它的叶子很窄,萼片顶端也很分散,与水草很相似,但很容易通过其明显较大的花(花瓣长度为15-26毫米,而不是12-18毫米)和叶下面的红色乳头来区分。文中列举了文献中对该物种描述的一些重大错误和主要诊断特征。

Abstract Silicon is one of the most widespread macro elements that have beneficial effects on plant growth. Although its positive effects on plant growth and development have been widely considered, little information is available about possibility of nano-silicon utilization in seed invigoration treatments. Enhanced seed germination may lead to improved stand establishment and it can play important role in successful crop production. Partial hydration of the seeds followed by dehydration in a controlled environment often results in rapid seed germination and more uniform seedling emergence compared to untreated seeds. In the present study, the effect of seed soaking in different concentration nano-silicon solutions (0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1 and 1.2 mM for 8 h) on germination characteristics of sunflower was investigated. Seed soaking in low concentration nano-silicon solutions (0.2 and 0.4 mM) significantly reduced days to 50% germination and mean germination time and improved root length, mean daily germination, seedling vigour index and final germination percentage. These results suggest that the incorporation of nano-silicon in priming solution, in an appropriate concentration, remarkably enhances germination performance and causes an effective invigoration of the seedling. These results underline the importance of pre-sowing seed soaking in diluted nano-silicon solutions for improving the germinability of sunflower.

Abstract The number of localities and the recent status of the populations of Viola uliginosa were unknown due to the absence of data. The short note presents recent data on the occurrence of this species in the Žalgiriai Forest (Šilutė district, western part of Lithuania). These data confirm the fact of the survival of V. uliginosa in the territory of the country and possibility of broader distribution of the species in Lithuania. Potential habitats and threats were discussed. Recent status of two populations of V. uliginosa in the Žalgiriai Forest is considered to be good. However, the vicinity of clear-cut area may have negative influence due to possible water table changes in the habitat of one population, while another population might be threatened in case of clear cuttings in the habitat.

Abstract The scope of this research involves the evaluation of biological impact of different Na and Cu salts (nitrates, sulphates and chlorides) on test-organisms. The toxic impact of Na and Cu salts on seed germination and root growth of Lepidium sativum (garden-cress) as well as mortality, growth and physiological parameters of On-corhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout) in early development stages (embryos and larvae) were determined. Among Na salts, nitrate was the most toxic to both test-organisms. Among tested Cu salts, sulphate caused the strongest toxic impact on L. sativum and nitrate - on embryos and larvae of O. mykiss. The accumulation of all tested anions and cations from the solutions of tested salts was higher in roots than in shoots ofL. sativum. The highest transfer of Na+ and Cu2+ from roots to shoots was determined for plants cultivated in sulphate salt. The transfer of SO4 2” was the highest among tested anions of sodium salts and the transfer of NO3” was higher among tested anions of copper salts. The rather high correlation was found between root length and amount of Na+, NO3” and SO4 2” ions in plant roots and rather low correlation coefficient was calculated between root length and the amount of Na+ and Cl” ions in roots.
