Limitative mycotic factors for some plants from the Romanian coast of the Black Sea

Abstract

Among factors which may diminish plant populations, there also the parasitic fungi. Most endangered tracheophytes seem to be those of coastal areas. In recent years almost all European beaches suffered profound modifications due to tourism. As a consequence of beach transformation, littoral plant populations decreased dramatically. There are needed urgent measures, if still possible. Parasitic fungi may contribute also to the decline of some littoral plant populations. A state of equilibrium has bean reached indeed by a long term coevolution, but this can sometimes be fragile.
