In public spaces, several opportunities exist to help pollinators including rare mowing, flower strip sowing, and bee hotel establishment. However, pollinator-promoting interventions are almost lacking and still understudied in Eastern Europe. We aimed to investigate the impact of rare mowing and annual flower-sowing interventions on pollinators, floral resources, and vegetation attributes in three case studies within Hungary. We compared treatment (extensively mown or sown) and control (intensively mown) site pairs during five sampling occasions within a season. We found positive, but due to the severe drought and management inaccuracies relatively minor effect of both interventions. The extensively mown sites presented higher and greener vegetation with more flowers and pollinators. The sown flower patches provided floral resources and supported the pollinators in the second half of the season, while they were scarcely visited in spring and early summer due to the annual soil scarification and re-sowing. Although the two types of interventions could complement each other during the season, there is room for further improvements. To reach resilient urban ecosystems against climate and environmental changes, we recommend using primarily native and mostly perennial seeds, combining intervention types, planning for the long-term, and avoiding management inaccuracies (e.g. unplanned mowing). Promoting and monitoring plant-pollinators systems may increase the diversity and human well-being in cities, while citizens’ involvement can facilitate these interventions.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1573-1642}, pages = {1783-1797}, orcid-numbers = {Báldi, András/0000-0001-6063-3721} } @article{MTMT:33883696, title = {Finding the Green Grass in the Haystack?

Therefore, the assessment of ecosystems on large scales is a priority action. In Hungary, this work (MAES-HU) took place between 2016 and 2022. Twelve ecosystem services (ES) were mapped and assessed along with several ecosystem condition (EC) indicators. Their integrated spatial analysis aimed to identify patterns of ES multifunctionality, reveal relationships between EC and ES and delineate ES bundles. The results show outstanding multifunctionality of natural ecosystem types compared with the more artificial types, emphasizing the importance of natural areas in order to fulfil human needs. Native forests provide the most varied range of services, which underlines the importance of forest management to consider multiple services. There is a positive correlation between condition and multifunctionality in forests; areas in better condition (in terms of species composition and structure) provide more services at an outstanding level. ES bundles mainly reflect the major ecosystem types, topography and forest condition. Our analysis represents an example of synthesizing national MAES results with a combination of methods.

This is mainly due to constraints in data availability and compatibility with LCA inventories. To target this gap, relative pollinator abundance estimates were obtained with the use of a Delphi assessment, during which 25 experts, covering 16 nationalities and 45 countries of expertise, provided scores for low, typical, and high expected abundance associated with 24 land use categories. Based on these estimates, this study presents a set of globally generic characterization factors (CFs) that allows translating land use into relative impacts to wild pollinator abundance. The associated uncertainty of the CFs is presented along with an illustrative case to demonstrate the applicability in LCA studies. The CFs based on estimates that reached consensus during the Delphi assessment are recommended as readily applicable and allow key differences among land use types to be distinguished. The resulting CFs are proposed as the first step for incorporating pollinator impacts in LCA studies, exemplifying the use of expert elicitation methods as a useful tool to fill data gaps that constrain the characterization of key environmental impacts.}, keywords = {MODELS; pesticide; AGRICULTURE; ecosystem services; FRAMEWORK; HABITATS; ecosystem service; LANDSCAPES; Engineering, Environmental; POLLINATOR ABUNDANCE; WILD BEE ABUNDANCE; Delphi expert elicitation}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1520-5851}, pages = {3445-3454}, orcid-numbers = {Scherer, Laura/0000-0002-0194-9942; Stavrinides, Menelaos/0000-0002-6459-1941} } @article{MTMT:33713911, title = {Escape from the garden: spreading, effects and traits of a new risky invasive ornamental plant (Gaillardia aristata Pursh)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33713911}, author = {Süle, Gabriella and Miholcsa, Zsombor and Molnár, Csaba and Kovács-Hostyánszki, Anikó and Fenesi, Annamária and Bauer, Norbert and Szigeti, Viktor}, doi = {10.3897/neobiota.83.97325}, journal-iso = {NEOBIOTA}, journal = {NEOBIOTA}, volume = {83}, unique-id = {33713911}, issn = {1619-0033}, abstract = {Ornamental plants constitute a major source of invasive species. Gaillardia aristata (great blanketflower) is planted worldwide and its escape has been reported in several European countries without ecological impact assessment on the invasive potential. As there is a markedly spreading population with invasive behaviour in Hungary, we aimed to reveal the distribution, impacts and traits of G. aristata . We gathered occurrence data outside the gardens in Hungary, based on literature, unpublished observations by experts and our own records. We investigated the impacts of an extended population, where the species invaded sandy old-fields within a 25 km 2 area. Here, we compared the species richness, diversity, community composition and height of invaded and uninvaded vegetation. Furthermore, we evaluated the traits potentially associated with the invasiveness of G. aristata in comparison with other herbaceous invasive species in the region. We found that G. aristata occurred mostly by casual escapes, but naturalised and invasive populations were also detected in considerable numbers. G. aristata usually appeared close to gardens and ruderal habitats, but also in semi-natural and natural grasslands and tended to spread better in sandy soils. We found lower plant species richness and Shannon diversity in the invaded sites and the invasion of G. aristata significantly influenced the composition of the plant community. The trait analyses revealed that the invasive potential of G. aristata is backed by a wide germination niche breadth, extremely long flowering period, small shoot-root ratio (large absorption and gripping surface), large seeds (longer persistence) and dispersal by epizoochory of grazing livestock (mostly by sheep), probably helping the species’ survival and spreading in the disturbed, species-poor, sandy, open habitats. These functional traits, as well as the ornamental utilisation, may act together with the aridisation of the climate and the changing land-use practices (e.g. abandoned, disturbed sites) in the success of G. aristata . We raise awareness of the rapid transition of G. aristata from ornamental plant to casual alien and then to invasive species in certain environmental conditions (i.e. sandy soils, species-poor communities, human disturbances), although it seems to be not a strong ecosystem transformer so far. Nonetheless, banning it from seed mixtures, developing eradication strategy and long-term monitoring of this species would be important to halt its spreading in time.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1314-2488}, pages = {43-69}, orcid-numbers = {Fenesi, Annamária/0000-0001-6596-9857} } @book{MTMT:33713035, title = {Beporzó-barát városok. a beporzó rovarok támogatásának lehetőségei települési környezetben}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33713035}, author = {Aszalós, Réka and Batáry, Péter and Deák, Balázs and Kovács-Hostyánszki, Anikó and Máté, András and Halassy, Melinda and Török, Edina and Török, Katalin and Valkó, Orsolya}, editor = {Kovács-Hostyánszki, Anikó}, publisher = {Ökológiai Kutatóközpont}, unique-id = {33713035}, year = {2023}, orcid-numbers = {Batáry, Péter/0000-0002-1017-6996; Deák, Balázs/0000-0001-6938-1997; Halassy, Melinda/0000-0001-8523-3169; Török, Edina/0000-0001-5982-7078; Valkó, Orsolya/0000-0001-7919-6293} } @article{MTMT:33712342, title = {Trait‐based effects of plant invasion on floral resources, hoverflies and bees}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33712342}, author = {Szigeti, Viktor and Fenesi, Annamária and Botta-Dukát, Zoltán and Kuhlmann, Michael and Potts, Simon G. and Roberts, Stuart and Soltész, Zoltán and Török, Edina and Kovács-Hostyánszki, Anikó}, doi = {10.1111/icad.12640}, journal-iso = {INSECT CONSERV DIVER}, journal = {INSECT CONSERVATION AND DIVERSITY}, volume = {16}, unique-id = {33712342}, issn = {1752-458X}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1752-4598}, pages = {483-496}, orcid-numbers = {Fenesi, Annamária/0000-0001-6596-9857; Botta-Dukát, Zoltán/0000-0002-9544-3474; Török, Edina/0000-0001-5982-7078} } @article{MTMT:33678113, title = {No consistencies in abundance-impact relationships across herbaceous invasive species and ecological impact metrics}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33678113}, author = {Fenesi, Annamária and Botta-Dukát, Zoltán and Miholcsa, Zsombor and Szigeti, Viktor and Molnár, Csaba and Sándor, Dorottya and Szabó, Anna and Kuhn, Thomas and Kovács-Hostyánszki, Anikó}, doi = {10.1111/1365-2745.14085}, journal-iso = {J ECOL}, journal = {JOURNAL OF ECOLOGY}, volume = {111}, unique-id = {33678113}, issn = {0022-0477}, abstract = {Abstract 1. The general shape (from linear to complex curve), direction (negative, positive), and strength (steepness of the slope) of abundance-impact relationships for different impact metrics are poorly known, despite their importance in understanding and predicting ecological repercussions of invasive species. It is also an open question how the functional traits of invasive species may influence the abundance-impact relationship. 2. We studied 11 widespread herbaceous invasive alien species of East-Central Europe and their 16 impact metrics (resident plant communities’ ecological characteristics, trait composition, functional diversity, and soil parameters) by sampling invaded and similar, uninvaded sites (space-for-time substitution method). Our aim was to (1) investigate the detailed ecological impacts of invasive plants on native plant communities; (2) explore the type of cover-impact relationships across impact metrics and their consistency across species; (3) study whether the cover-impact relationship depends on functional traits of invasive species. 3. When considering all invasive species together, we found that invaded plant communities were less species-rich and less functionally even but showed higher values of Rao’s Q diversity index, and higher nitrogen, phosphorus, and organic carbon soil nutrient content compared to uninvaded communities. However, the species-wise analyses revealed strikingly different impacts among the 11 invasive species and also among impact metrics. 4. Regarding the type of cover-impact relationships, we found no consistencies across invasive species and impact metrics. Still, non-linear relationships prevailed when species were analysed together and linear relationships when species were studied individually. The functional traits of the invasive species explained only a small part of this response heterogeneity; mostly the small-seeded perennial invasive species affected the cover-species richness relationship. Synthesis: Herbaceous invasive plant species have a cover-dependent impact on resident plant communities, but there are no consistent patterns across impact metrics and invasive species. Specific traits or trait-syndrome of invasive species may affect the heterogeneity of cover-impact relationships, but that would need further study. We highlighted the importance of impact assessments involving invasive species’ abundance to unmask cryptic impacts for species that show contrasting effects along an abundance gradient.}, keywords = {DIVERSITY; Hungary; Romania; Species richness; plant invasion; Alien plants; functional traits; plant cover}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1365-2745}, pages = {1120-1138}, orcid-numbers = {Fenesi, Annamária/0000-0001-6596-9857; Botta-Dukát, Zoltán/0000-0002-9544-3474} } @{MTMT:33733310, title = {8.6.
