Effect of artificial interference on plant diversity in urban area

Abstract

Abstract: The artificial interference resulting in decrease of plant diversity is a widespread phenomenon, which is more obvious in densely populated urban area. Decrease of plant diversity directly influences the structure, function and stability of ecosystem. Taking an example of Taiyuan area Shanxi Province, the effect of artificial interference on plant habitat, plant diversity and plant growth in urban area was analyzed in this paper. The relationship between plant diversity and artificial interference intensity in urban area was established, which provided referential basis for the protection of plant diversity in urban area. In the meantime, further study on the relationship between plant diversity and artificial interference in urban area for the future was put forward.

Key words: Metaphycus ericeri, Temperature, Experimental population, Life table
