4 paź 2021 · This study assessed the effect of giant hogweed invasion on the communities of plants and soil nematodes in the riparian habitat. We found that invasion by H. mantegazzianum increased soil pH, decreased carbon and nitrogen content, reduced the number and coverage of the native plant species, and influenced nematode communities and their structures.
15 cze 2022 · Heracleum mantegazzianum Sommier & Levier (Giant hogweed) has spread across Europe after its introduction as an ornamental from the native range in the Western Greater Caucasus. In addition to its invasive capability, H. mantegazzianum reduces the alpha diversity of native species in the non-native range and can cause second-degree burns when ...

3 lis 2021 · Giant hogweed is a globally invasive plant that can cause a phototoxic reaction which can cause burns and hyperpigmentation. As a result, the species can have large economic costs and human health impacts where high plant densities and high human densities overlap.
16 sie 2013 · In this study, we explored the impact of an invasive plant Heracleum mantegazzianum (giant hogweed) at 24 grassland sites invaded for different periods of time (from 11 to 48 years). Native species' richness and productivity were initially reduced by hogweed invasion but tended to recover after ~30 years of hogweed residence at the sites.
1 gru 2015 · The following study was undertaken to (i) recognize the general distribution of giant hogweeds in Poland; (ii) evaluate the forestry employees’ knowledge of the plants’ appearance, health threats, and methods of control; and (iii) investigate the occupational risk of giant hogweed exposures to workers of forestry inspectorates in Poland.
