On the basis of the brambles, the vegetation of these hedges can be assigned to the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii, which comprises the bramble scrubs of circumneutral and nutrient rich soils in West Europe (Haveman et al. 2017, Haveman \& de Ronde 2019). Until now, this alliance was thought to be restricted to the northwestern edge of the European continent, but based on these relev{\´e}es and the known distribution area of Rubus nemoralis and Rubus polyanthemus, both characteristic for the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii, large parts of North England and Scotland have to be included in the distribution area of the alliance. The Pruno-Rubion sprengelii is optimally developed in rather narrow structures, like hedges, which are pruned every year. Here, brambles and herbs alike can grow with and under the shrubs, facilitated by the light that reaches large parts of the ground. Where the economic base of hedges perishes, they are not longer maintained, and the shrubs can grow out to their natural proportions. This changes the amount of light reaching the surface in the inner parts of the thicket, changing the competition between the species. The brambles as well as the herbs are displaced to the outer edges of the scrub, and the vegetation "dissociates" in a high-growing scrub, a fore-mantle ("cuff") with brambles, and a fringe with perennial herbs. These elements can hardly ever be assigned to the Pruno-Rubion anymore. The Pruno-Rubion sprengelii in optima forma is a scrub in which the three elements (shrubs, brambles, and herbs) grow closely intertwined. This is rarely found in natural landscapes, and thus the alliance is a typical element of the old farmer landscape. What is more: the typical species of the alliance, like Rubus nemoralis and R. polyanthemus, could only evolve after the landscape was opened by farmers in the last six millennia (Matzke-Hajek 1997), giving way to Rubus ulmifolius to expand its distribution area. This caused an explosion of hybrids which stabilised through apomixis into the wealth of Rubus species inhibiting the West European landscape nowadays (Sochor et al. 2015). Many of these species have their original home in a man-made landscape. Therefore, the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii can be characterised as a "farmers alliance" pur sang.}, subject = {Brombeere}, language = {en} } @article{DrenckhahnZonneveld2022, author = {Drenckhahn, Detlev and Zonneveld, Ben}, title = {Rubus admirabilis Drenckhahn, eine neue Brombeerart aus dem Formenkreis der Serie Vestiti an der Westk{\"u}ste von Schleswig-Holstein, Deutschland}, series = {Forum Geobotanicum}, volume = {10}, journal = {Forum Geobotanicum}, issn = {1867-9315}, doi = {10.3264/FG.2022.1228}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-298658}, pages = {38-44}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Rubus admirabilis Drenckhahn is a tetraploid new species of the Rubus section Rubus, series Vestiti. Stem leaves are 5-foliolate, digitate to weakly pedate with elongated, obovate acuminate terminal leaflets, adpressed hairy upper side and light green shimmering, softly hairy under side. Stems are arching (up to 2 m) partly climbing, obtuse-angled, densely hairy and glandular, gray green to dull brown, armed with 10(3-21) /5cm straight slender prickles, mostly 30-45º declining, 4.6(3-7)mm long. Pedicles of inflorescence are densely hairy (patent and partly adpressed), armed with 2-4 (per cm) slender patent to slightly curved prickles (1-2 mm long) and studded with numerous stalked glands (0.3-0.5 mm long) and some bristles. The species tolerates shadow and prefers moist soil. The type locality is probably the species' site of introduction or genesis. It is located west of the town Garding on the North Frisian peninsula of Eiderstedt (several hundred shrubs), where several non-native Rubus species were probably introduced in the course of reforestation in 1970. Rubus admirabilis spreads south to the town of Heide in Dithmarschen and north to the island of Amrum (maximal range diameter of 70 km) and seems to be in an expansive phase.}, subject = {Brombeere}, language = {de} } @article{DrenckhahnZonneveld2017, author = {Drenckhahn, Detlev and Zonneveld, Ben}, title = {Rubus viridilucidus Drenckhahn, eine neue Brombeerart aus der Sektion Corylifolii, Serie Subcanescentes}, series = {Forum Geobotanicum}, volume = {7}, journal = {Forum Geobotanicum}, issn = {1867-9315}, doi = {10.3264/FG.2017.1221}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-156257}, pages = {34-42}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Rubus viridilucidus Drenckhahn ist eine tetraploide Brombeerart (2n=28) aus der Sektion Corylifolii, Serie Subcanescentes mit einem Genomgewicht (2C-Wert) von 1,49 pg, das dem Genomgewicht verwandter Sippen der Serie Subcanescentes wie R. scabrosus, R. fasciculatiformis und R. fasciculatus (1,52-1,54 pg) aus Unterfranken entspricht.
