Approximately 150 bryologists from 40 countries addressed topics related\nto bryophyte ecology, biogeography and nature conservation, as well as usage of\ngene research in bryophyte physiology, phylogenetic and systematics. In total,\n79 oral presentations and 86 posters contributed to these topics.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several presentations were related with global climate warming impact to bryophyte species\ndistribution and biological diversity, also in peatland ecosystems, e.g. in\nCzech Republic, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Norway and Switzerland presentations covered Peat-moss morphology\nand genetic diversity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LIFE Peat Restore project was represented by Dr. biol. L\u012bga Strazdi\u0146a with a poster that was prepared jointly with colleagues from Latvian and Lithuanian project teams. In this study, bryophyte usage as\nindicators of different degradation degrees in peatlands was discussed. Among 85 bryophyte species that were recorded in eight project sites in\nLatvia and Lithuania, 24 species were significantly related to one of the degradation classes, showing species sensitivity or capability to adapt to anthropogenic\nimpact. These results can be used in similar studies and assessments to evaluate degradation intensity and select the most suitable\nmanagement approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the talk in the poster session, the\nGEST approach was also explained. Most of all, researchers from Brno Masaryk University\nin Czech Republic showed special interest in LIFE Peat Restore and the GEST\napproach, as peatland exploitation and increasing impact of global warming to\nregional flora and quality of plant localities, is a current topic in their\nhome country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
