To assess the vegetation status and substrate condition on seedling survival and flowery of an endangered plant species Aster kantoensis, I carried out an in situ seed-sowing experiment in the gravelly/sandy floodplain of the Kinu River, central Japan. The coverage
of plant species, especially that of an alien species Eragrostis curvula, increased,...
Asterkantoensis, an endangered and monocarpic perennial plant species, is endemic to the gravelly floodplain of a few rapid flowing rivers
in eastern central Japan. In recent years, an extreme declining trend in the species has been accelerated due to the strong
negative influence by invasion of an alien grass, Eragrostiscurvula. A restoration proj...
To test the hypothesis that nonbuoyant seeds transported by river water are deposited with mineral sediment particles that
have a similar fall velocity through water, we examined the relationship between the size of sediment deposited by a flood
and the density of the deposited seeds of a invasive alien plant, Eragrostis curvula. The average estima...
The floodplains on the middle reaches of rapid Japanese rivers are characterized by extensive grav-elly areas with sparse vegetation cover. There are a number of plant species endemic to the gravelly floodplain habitats, including two threatened species, Aster kantoensis and Ixeris tamagawaensiss. The Kinu River is a typical rapid river in central...
