Beeinflussung der generativen Vermehrung von Rumex obtusifolius durch produktionstechnische Maßnahmen

Rumex obtusifolius produces a large number of long living seeds. Therefore, all means to reduce seed production or establishment of seedlings from seeds are impor-tant. The data of this paper show that in grassland a high soil seed bank not necessar-ily leads to a high infestation with dock. There are options to interfere seed production and establishment of seedlings. The cutting regime may have an impact on seed production. Establishment of seedlings can be minimized by avoiding gaps in the vegetation canopy
