Establishment gaps in species-poor grasslands: artificial biodiversity hotspots to support the colonization of target species

Reka Kiss et al.

Summary: Sowing high-diversity seed mixtures into establishment gaps created in dense grass swards led to an increase in species diversity and successful establishment of sown target species. Weed abundance in the gaps was moderate and decreased over time, while the sown species started to colonize the surrounding grasslands within 5 years. Gaps of 4-m(2) size showed the highest number of species and individuals dispersed, with more stable development and lower grazing pressure compared to smaller or larger gaps.
