Abstract:Wetland plants are essential for ecosystem functions. However, wetland plants in peri-urban areas have been affected by increased human interference. Hence, analyzing the drivers of plant diversity could be extremely useful for biodiversity conservation. The main objective was to investigate the response of plant diversity in wetlands (e.g., plant richness, plant abundance, and taxonomic distinctness) to the environment in peri-urban areas. The results show that the wetland area is the most important factor in… Show more
