V modelovém území jihozápadní části Českého krasu bylo studováno druhové složení bylinného podrostu a déšť semen ve vztahu k podmínkám prostředí, zejména fragmentaci lesů. Počet druhů cévnatých rostlin se překvapivě zvyšoval od okraje směrem do nitra lesních fragmentů. To platilo zejména v případě lesních specialistů s nízkou schopností šíření a silnou vazbou na kontinuitu lesního prostředí.

In the model area of the southwestern part of the Bohemian Karst, the species composition of the herb layer vegetation and seed rain were studied in relation to environmental conditions, especially forest fragmentation. The number of vascular plant species surprisingly increased from the edge towards the interior of the forest fragments, especially in the case of forest specialists.
