Abstract
Species diversity of living creatures is in the centre of attention of scientists of many fields, as well as people who are involved in environment protection. The reason for this is continuous extinction of many plant species, including weeds, which can be observed in recent years. There are many factors that have an impact on weed extinction. Chemicalisation of crops (mainly use of herbicides) is considered the predominant factor here that limits weeds’ diversity. Abandoning of correct crop rotation and organic fertilisation are not without significance as well; all this happens to the benefit of monocultures and intense mineral fertilization...
