Although this grass is widely distributed in central and south-eastern Europe reaching dominance in certain grassland types, the knowledge on its ecology and coenology is very poor. More-over, some of the published data on its distribution are wrongly related to Avenula praeusta. We studied the taxon within an area of about 300 km2 (Central Slovakia) where it occurs in diverse habitats. Data from a systematic phytosociological survey were used to assess interspecific associations and ecologi-cal indicator values of the taxon. Detailed measurements from a transect along a spruce colonisation gradient were used to evaluate its relationship to a set of topographical, microclimatical, pedological and soil-microbiological characteristics. Tillers of A. adsurgens subsp. adsurgens were cultivated for two growing seasons to estimate characteristics of its clonal morphology and growth and its ability of spatial spreading. In the studied area, the taxon occurred mainly over the volcanic bedrock along a wide range of altitudes. It was concentrated in slightly managed or abandoned montane grasslands (800–1100 m) of the Violion caninae and Nardo strictae-Agrostion tenuis alliances. Phytosociologically the taxon seems not to be an important diagnostic species of these communities, rather an indicator of their successional development. Its highest cover was recorded in early to mid-successional stages without significant proportions of woody species. In stands with traditional management by mowing, grazing or their combination, the taxon was common (albeit with lower percentage cover), but more intensive ma-nagement including amelioration or fencing led to its retreat. Ellenberg ecological indicator values of A. adsurgens subsp. adsurgens were set as follows: light 7, temperature 5, continentality 4, moisture 4, soil reaction 5 and nutrients 3. Along a successional gradient, the taxon cover was positively correlated with percentage cover of herb litter, catalase activity, canopy openness and potassium content and ne-gativelycorrelated with percentage cover of needles and canopy index reflecting the cumulative effects of spruce colonisation. The horizontal spreading of the taxon was enabled by the formation of spacers with a maximum length of 25.5 cm. We suppose that the ability to spread horizontally by spacers, together with the observed clonal plasticity, tall stature and fast growth by intensive tillering, belong to important attributes of A. adsurgens subsp. adsurgens promoting its success and dominant role in the abandoned grasslands Kategória publikačnej činnosti ADC Číslo archívnej kópie 28088 Kategória ohlasu BECKER, Thomas - REITALU, Triin - RUPRECHT, Eszter - DENGLER, Juergen.
