34 species identified
Most common were grasses: Echinochloa spp. (25 plots),
Setaria spp. (19), and Digitaria spp. (18)
Principle Components Analysis (PCA) of 28 species
Axis 1 accounted for 29.1% of the variance,
and axis 2 accounted for 14.9% of the
variance
Drier plots grouped on left of biplot where
grass species loaded
Wetter plots clumped on right where
mostly OBL species loaded
Intermediate plots were centrally located
where Echinochloa sp (FACW) loaded
