AB  - Aims Data on the variability of hyperaccumulation potential of the facultative serpentinophytes Noccaea kovatsii and N. praecox on different geological substrates are scarce. The aim of this study was to assess the accumulation potential of these two species from ultramafic and non-ultramafic substrates, with special emphasis on the hyperaccumulation of Ni, Zn and Cd. Methods Samples of plants and corresponding soils were collected from 16 sites covering a wide range of geochemistry. Elemental concentrations were determined in the roots, shoots and the rhizosphere soils. The pH, particle size distribution and content of organic matter were also determined in the soil samples. Results All ultramafic accessions of both species hyperaccumulated Ni with high intraspecific variability. Only one accession of N. kovatsii from a schist soil hyperaccumulated Zn, with also a high Cd accumulation. Accumulation and translocation of Ni in both species were much higher in the ultramafic accessions, whereas Zn accumulation and translocation was found in both ultramafic and non-ultramafic accessions. Conclusions Ni accumulation and translocation was restricted to ultramafic populations of both species, whereas it is a species-wide trait for Zn. This study provides new and comprehensive information on the natural variation of hyperaccumulation of Ni, Zn and Cd in N. kovatsii and N. praecox.

AB  - The aim of the present investigation was to assess the influence of rhizome mass on the success of plantation establishment and biomass yield of the bioenergy crop M. × giganteus during 10 years of cultivation. The experiment included three treatments with different rhizome masses: 10-20 g (very low); 25-35 g (low), and 40-60 g (medium mass). Planting density was 2 rhizomes m-2. The plants were harvested by mowing of the whole above-ground biomass each year in February. Out of the total number of planted rhizomes, the lowest emergence was noticed in very low mass rhizomes. In the first season, the greatest number of stems and crop height were encountered under the treatment with the highest rhizome mass. In the second season, crop heights were almost equal in all treatments. During the first two seasons, the highest biomass yields were recorded under the treatments with the highest rhizome masses. Although the analyzed parameters were highest with the rhizomes of 40-60g during the crop establishing stage, starting from the third season of cultivation, high yields of above-ground biomass may be obtained also with lower mass rhizomes. Having the highest biomass yield (25.85±7.36 Mg DM ha-1), the crop established with rhizomes of 25-35 g clearly stood out.
AB  - Cilj našeg istraživanja je bio da procenimo uticaj mase rizoma bioenergetskog useva Miscanthus × giganteus na uspešnost zasnivanja i prinos biomase tokom prvih 10 godina gajenja. Ogledni tretmani su obuhvatili 3 mase rizoma: (1) 10-20 g (veoma male); (2) 25-35 g (male); i (3) 40-60 g (srednje mase). Gustina sadnje je bila 2 rizoma m -2 . Žetva košenjem celokupne nadzemne biomase izvođena je svake godine u februaru. Od ukupnog broja posađenih rizoma najslabije nicanje zabeleženo je kod rizoma najmanje mase. U prvoj godini gajenja najveći broj stabala i najveću visinu useva zabeležili smo u tretmanima sa najvećom masom rizoma. Međutim, u drugoj godini gajenja visina useva sva tri tretmana bila je približno ista. U prve dve godine gajenja najveću biomasu prinosa ustanovili smo u tretmanima sa najvećom masom rizoma. Iako su u fazi zasnivanja useva analizirani parametri bili najbolji sa rizomima mase 40-60 g, visoki prinosi nadzemne biomase od treće godine gajenja mogu se dobiti korišćenjem rizoma manjih masa. Jasno se ističe usev zasnovan sa rizomima mase 25-35 g sa najvećim prinosom biomase (25,85±7,36 Mg SM ha -1).

AB  - The aim of this study was to compare trace element profiles of Noccaea praecox (Wulfen) F. K. Mey. growing on ultramafic soils in different habitat types and to observe differences in uptake and translocation of trace elements. Physico-chemical characteristics of the soil and concentrations of P2O5, K2O, Ca, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Pb, Cd, and Co in plant samples were presented. Biological concentration, accumulation, and translocation factors were calculated to estimate accumulation potential of different N. praecox accessions. All of the studied accessions were Ni hyperaccumulators (with shoot concentrations up to 14,593 mg kg(-1)), but with notable differences in accumulation and translocation rates. Significant differences in accumulation and translocation patterns of trace elements were observed among accessions from habitats characterized as serpentine steppes on dry, shallow soils in contrast to the accessions from habitats with higher soil moisture, and higher content of organic matter.

AB  - Despite economic importance of Tetranychidae, knowledge regarding diversity of spider mites in the Balkan Peninsula and Southeast Europe is incomplete, especially in protected natural areas. This study presents diversity of spider mites (Acari: Tetranychidae) collected over five growing seasons at 296 locations in 38 protected natural areas of Serbia. A total of 31 spider mite species were found, 10 from Bryobiinae and 21 from Tetranychinae. The species Eotetranychus fagi Zacher was recorded as new to Serbia and this record was also the first one for Southeast Europe. Spider mites were found on host plants in five basic types as well as many subtypes of terrestrial habitats, with woodland as the most dominant one. A total of 151 plant species from 44 families were recorded as hosts for spider mites including new world records: 60 new hosts for family Tetranychidae and 41 new hosts for 21 spider mite species. Host plants from Rosaceae family harbored the highest number of spider mite species (16). A considerable number of species was found on host plants from the families Betulaceae (11), Asteraceae (10) and Sapindaceae (10). Two cosmopolitan spider mites, Tetranychus urticae Koch and Tetranychus turkestani Ugarov & Nikolskii, were clearly distinguished with 67 (7 new) and 43 (13 new) recorded host species, respectively; among newly recorded hosts for Tetranychidae family, these two mite species were found on 27 and 12 hosts, respectively. After the two most common species, the most striking was the presence of Bryobia praetiosa Koch with 24 (4 new) recorded host plants, followed by Amphitetranychus viennensis (Zacher), Eotetranychus carpini (Oudemans) and Bryobia rubrioculus(Scheuten), with 21 (7 new), 20 (6 new) and 16 (2 new) hosts, respectively. The remaining tetranychids were found on 1-9 host plant species. This study provided the first insight into diversity of tetranychids in Serbian protected areas. Further research in this field should focus on mites from host plants representative of specific areas and habitats, including endangered, endemic and relict species.

AB  - Ramonda serbica and R. nathaliae are known as resurrection flowering plants. Both species are long-living chasmophytes that are physiologically inactive during warm summer periods. Besides numerous known adaptations at the physiological level, it is reasonable to expect that these plant species possess a number of distinctive structural adaptations associated with poikilohydry. Therefore, we analyzed in detail the anatomy of roots, stem and leaves of both species. Plants were collected from their natural habitat or grown from seeds in controlled conditions. Fresh or fixed plant material was sectioned and stained by various histochemical reagents. In addition, vascular tissue was investigated on macerated plant material, and the characteristics of epidermal cells were analyzed on epidermal peelings. Samples were investigated by reflected or transmitted light microscopy, or by scanning electron microscopy. Epidermal cells of the leaves have specific anticlinal beaded thickenings, which could enable maintenance of the epidermis during dehydration and rehydration. Stem vascular tissues form a net-like structure. The shape and arrangement of parenchyma cells appear to support axial contraction. At the base of each adventitious root, a special, thick-walled tissue is observed, which is composed of living cells with pitted walls and probably not involved in long-distance water transport. Overall, various stem and leaf adaptations allow effective water transport through the plant and provide mechanical stability during the relatively fast process of dehydration and rehydration.

Samples were investigated by reflected or transmitted light microscopy, or by scanning electron microscopy. Epidermal cells of the leaves have specific anticlinal beaded thickenings, which could enable maintenance of the epidermis during dehydration and rehydration. Stem vascular tissues form a net-like structure. The shape and arrangement of parenchyma cells appear to support axial contraction. At the base of each adventitious root, a special, thick-walled tissue is observed, which is composed of living cells with pitted walls and probably not involved in long-distance water transport. Overall, various stem and leaf adaptations allow effective water transport through the plant and provide mechanical stability during the relatively fast process of dehydration and rehydration.",

AB  - Dry open rocky grassland vegetation on shallow ultramafic soils in the Central Balkans represents typical secondary grasslands, which have developed mainly in the zone of thermophilous mixed deciduous broadleaved and pine forests. Although all relevant national and regional syntaxonomic reviews classify these rocky grasslands within the distinct order Halacsyetalia sendtneri, the syntaxonomic position of the order in different systems of classification has varied in the past. Considering this as well as the fact that there have been no synoptic works on this specific vegetation type, we gathered all available data on the order Halacsyetalia sendtnerii from the serpentinites of the Western and Central Balkan Peninsula for its critical evaluation. The results obtained in our analyses allowed us to propose a new syntaxonomic concept, which is partly in accordance with previously published syntaxonomic schemes. Two alliances can be distinguished: Centaureo kosaninii-Bromion fibrosi and Potentillion visianii, for which the diagnoses, diagnostic and constant taxa are given. Furthermore, we discussed the syntaxonomic position of the order Halacsyetalia sendtneri with respect to the classes Festuco-Brometea and Koelerio-Corynephoretea, as within the analysed associations, many taxa diagnostic for the class Koelerio-Corynephoretea were registered. The thermophytic pioneer grasslands and therophyte sward communities included in the alliance Thymion jankae nomen. inval., characterised by the absence of typical species of the order Halascyetalia sendtneri and presence of taxa diagnostic for the class Koelerio-Corynephoretea, are temporarily left within the order Halacsyetalia sendtneri. Finally, we provided nomenclatural adjustments for the analysed associations when necessary, although a conclusive judgement regarding all the associations currently included within the analysed order can only be made after more detailed field surveys including data on cryptogams as well as joint analyses including all floristically and ecologically similar syntaxa (e.g. Astragalo-Potentilletalia, Festucetalia valesiacae).

AB  - Dry grasslands are highly diverse vegetation types of great importance for livestock production in rural Balkan areas. We analysed a large data set of phytosociological releves of dry grasslands (Festuco-Brometea and Festucetea vaginatae classes) in Serbia to produce the first overview of its classification, distribution, environmental conditions and biodiversity patterns. Phytocoenological releves from relevant literature sources and our own investigations were stored in the Vegetation Database of Serbia (EU-RS-002) and the Balkan Dry Grassland Database (EU-00-013). After heterogeneity-constrained random resampling, the final dataset contained 1,897 releves and 1,323 species. Species composition was classified hierarchically by the beta flexible method. We used species ecological indicator values for the estimation of the ecological conditions. Floristic and vegetation diversity and the conservation relevance of various dry grassland types, based on an assessment of endemic and protected species, were analysed. We identified 11 clusters, which were well characterised by their species composition and ecology. The first three clusters included loess and sand steppe grasslands mostly found in the Pannonian part of Serbia (Festucion rupicolae and Festucion vaginatae). The next three clusters consisted of Balkan ultramafic rocky grasslands of the order Halacsyetalia sendtneri, Balkan submediterranean mountain steppe grasslands on calcareous substrates, belonging to the order Astragalo-Potentilletalia and grasslands of the Balkan alliance Saturejion montanae on limestone. The third group of releves comprised Balkan alliances of dry grasslands on deep soils, the Chrysopogono-Danthonion and sub-continental steppes of the alliance Festucion valesiacae in hilly areas of Serbia, mostly in the thermophilous oak zone. According to ordination analysis (DCA), the main floristic gradient was largely determined by temperature and moisture. The Festuco-Brometea class exhibited high floristic diversity (1,323 plant species) and very high conservation relevance in view of the large number of Balkan endemic species (204). A total of 233 species and subspecies protected by national legislation within the studied vegetation were recorded.

AB  - The concentration of heavy metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn) in surface soils in the area surrounding the steel production facility in Serbia was determined to assess the contribution of emissions to pollution. The mean concentrations of Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn were found to be higher than values reported for uncultivated soils world-wide and also exceeded mean concentrations of metals in European soil. Analysis of variance revealed the influence of latitude, longitude and distance from the emission source on heavy metal concentrations in soil. Multivariate statistical techniques (cluster analysis and factor analysis) confirmed previous findings and were also used to investigate relationships between heavy metal concentrations and soil particle size fractions. Regression analysis showed that the latitude, longitude and distance from the source are good predictors of heavy metal concentrations in soil. Geostatistical analysis revealed the spatial distribution of heavy metal concentrations in soil and their correlation with prevailing winds in the investigated area.

AB  - Serpentine soils from 16 sample points in Serbia as well as the roots and shoots of eight Brassicaceae family species: Aethionema saxatile, Alyssum montanum, Alyssum repens, Cardamine plumieri, Erysimum linariifolium, Erysimum carniolicum, Isatis tinctoria, Rorippa lippizensis, were analyzed with regard to their concentrations of P, K, Fe, Ca, Mg, Ni, Zn, Mn, Cu, Cr, Cd, and Pb. Most of the soil samples were typical of ultramafic sites with low concentrations of P, K and Ca and high concentrations of Mg, Fe, Ni and Zn. Ca/Mg ratio was  lt 1 in most soil samples and Brassicaceae plants. Only in A. montanum, A. repens, E. linariifolium and R. lippizensis was the Ca/Mg ratio >1. The levels of P, K, Fe and Zn were high, Mn and Cu occurred in low amounts, whereas Cr, Cd, Co and Pb were only traceable. In the roots and shoots of A. montanum and A. repens the measured concentrations of Ni were 657 mg kg(-1) and 676 mg kg(-1) respectively, which is the first instance that such high concentrations of Ni were detected in these two species.

AB  - Ultramafic areas exist in large blocks or as small outcrops separated from other geological substrates in Serbia and host a certain number of facultative serpentinophytes. Among them is Alyssum murale Waldst & Kit. s.l., widespread species distributed in SE Europe and SW Asia and well known example of Ni hyperaccumulators. The aims of the present study were to investigate the level of concentration of Ni (and some elements such as Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Pb, Co, and Cd) at several serpentine soils in Serbia and to determine the level of accumulation of these elements in roots, shoots, and leaves, with a focus on Ni. The maximum available concentrations of metals in soil dry matter (DM) were 950 mg.kg(-1) Fe, 3,110 mg.kg(-1) Ca, 4,600 mg.kg(-1) Mg, 443 mg.kg(-1) Ni, 803 mg.kg(-1) Mn, 26 mg.kg(-1) Zn, 4 mg.kg(-1) Cu, 43 mg.kg(-1) Cr, 82 mg.kg(-1) Co, 1 mg.kg(-1) Cd, and 17 mg.kg(-1) Pb. The Ca/Mg ratio in serpentine soils varied from 0.08 to 6.22. In A. murale plants, the maximum concentrations of Ni were up to 2,926 mg.kg(-1) in roots, 6,793 mg.kg(-1) in shoots, and 13,160 mg.kg(-1) in leaves. Ca/Mg ratio in plant tissues were up to 2.25 (roots), 9.25 (shoots), and 15.23 (leaves). Cu content in the roots and shoots was high (up to 1,044 mg.kg(-1) Cu and 849 mg.kg(-1) Cu). This survey suggests that some A. murale populations from serpentine soils of Serbia emerge as strong Ni hyperaccumulators and can be used for phytoextraction purposes.

AB  - The specific activities of natural radionuclides (K-40, Ra-226 and Th-232) and Chernobyl-derived Cs-137 were measured in soil profiles representing typical soil types of Belgrade (Serbia): chernozems, fluvisols, humic gleysols, eutric cambisols, vertisols and gleyic fluvisols. The influence of soil properties and content of stable elements on radionuclide distribution down the soil profiles (at 5 cm intervals up to 50 cm depth) was analysed. Correlation analysis identified associations of K-40, Ra-226 and Cs-137 with fine-grained soil fractions. Significant positive correlations were found between Cs-137 specific activity and both organic matter content and cation exchange capacity. Saturated hydraulic conductivity and specific electrical conductivity were also positively correlated with the specific activity of Cs-137. The strong positive correlations between Ra-226 and Th-232 specific activities and Fe and Mn indicate an association with oxides of these elements in soil. The correlations observed between K-40 and Cr, Ni, Pb and Zn and also between Cs-137 and Cd, Cr, Pb and Zn could be attributed to their common affinity for clay minerals. These results provide insight into the main factors that affect radionuclide migration in the soil, which contributes to knowledge about radionuclide behaviour in the environment and factors governing their mobility within terrestrial ecosystems.
