Abstract:Natural regeneration of vegetation is prevented in areas of marly soils by drought and soil erosion. In ecological restoration of eroded areas, the selection of suitable plant species is critical. The aim of this study is to assess specific plant species and their ecological characteristics for their ability to thrive under maximum drought in areas with marly soil. The study was conducted on 36 plots in the marly areas of Eskisehir-Bozan, Turkey, during the most drought-prone months, august and September, in 2… Show more
