abstract:
The aim of this study was to identify plant species composition and the direction of vegetation transformation in the areas of the Wielkie Błoto lowland bog, which were degraded as a result of drainage and exploitation of the peat deposit and by fire. The present course of plant succession favours the development of non-peatforming plant communities. Most plant species form semi-natural or anthropogenic meadows and represent different phytosociological classes, especially Molinio-Arrhenatheretea and Artemisietea vulgaris.
