Abstract

Abstract: Based on the datasets from the field,58 quadrats in the plant communities of Yundingshan Nature Reserve,Shanxi were classified into 13 associations by TWINSPAN,including Ass. Larix principis-rupprechtii+ Betula platyphylla- Lonicera maakii- Carex lanceloata,Ass. Picea meyeri+ Larix principis-rupprechtii- Spiraea pubescens+ Lonicera chrysantha- Carex lanceloata+ Dendranthema chanetii,Ass. Betula platyphylla- Spiraea pubescens- Iris ruthenica,Ass. Betula platyphylla- Rosa bella+ Lonicera chrysantha- Dendranthema chanetii,Ass. Pinus tabulaeformis+ Quercus liaotungensis- Lonicera chrysantha+ Rosa xanthina- Carex lanceloata+ Dendranthema chanetii,et al.The ordination results of the communities from DCA were as following:The first axis of the DCA ordination indicated the tendency of slope change was from the sunless side to the sunlit side. The second axis reflected the change of altitude. Moreover,the ordinations of the 68 dominant species and 58 quadrats showed they shared some similarities.

Key words: Yundingshan Nature Reserve, plant communities, numerical classification, ordination
