Rice field flora and vegetation in the provinces of Valencia and Tarragona
Twenty nine emergent and twenty floating or submerged taxa , were found in the rice fields in Valencia and Tarragona provinces. Eleven of the se taxa, all them emergent, are alien Of introduced ones. Echinochloa oryzoides and E. oryzicola are the most important in both areas, together with Cyperus difformis and Echinochloa hispidula in Valencia. The remaining thirty eight taxa belong to the native flora. There are predominantly the emergent Scirpus maritimus, Alisma plantago-aquatica. Echinochloa crus-galli and Paspalum distichum; the floating Lemna minor and L. gibba; the submersed Potamogeton nodosus; Zannichellia palustris and Najas minor; and the macroscopical algae Chara vulgaris, Cladophora glomerata, Oedogonium capilliforme, Spirogyra spp., Pithophora oedogania and Hydrodictyon reticulatum. The flora evolution during the last years is analyzed and the present weed communities are studied. The contribution of the different phytosociological classes to the rice field weed flora is presented.De los 49 t谩xones registrados (29 emergentes y 20 flotantes o sumergidos) 11 son ex贸ticos introducidos, de los cuales los m谩s importantes son Echinochloa oryzoides y E. oryzicolaen ambas zonas, adem谩s de Cyperus difformis y Echinochloa hispidula en Valencia, y el resto propios de la flora aut贸ctona, predominando Scirpus maritimus, Alisma plantago-aquatica. Echinochloa crus-galli y Paspalum distichum como emergentes, Lemna minor y L. gibba como flotantes, Potamogeton nodosus, Zannichellia palustris y Najas minor como sumergidos y Chara vulgaris, Cladophora glomerata, Oedogonium capilliforme. Spirogyra spp., Pirhophora oedogonia e Hydrodictyon reticulatum como algas macrosc贸picas. Se analiza la evoluci贸n experimentada por la flora en los 煤ltimos a帽os, adem谩s de estudiar las comunidades vegetales presentes y de indicar la importancia de las distintas clases fitosociol贸gicas en su contribuci贸n a la flora arvense del cultivo
