Kapēc Latvijā ir liela augu daudzveidība?

Latvijas augu valstī ietilpst aļģes, sūnas, staipekņi, kosas, papardes un sēklaugi. Kā atsevišķas organismu valstis mūsdienās izdala sēnes un dažkārt - arī ķērpjus. Iepriekš minēto grupu konstatētais sugu skaits Latvijā tuvojas desmit tūkstošiem. Latvija atrodas daudzu augu sugu areālu (izplatības robežu) krustpunktā: te ir sastopamas dažādas „ziemeļu”, „dienvidu”, „rietumu” un „austrumu” sugas.

Latvija atrodas uz robežas starp ziemeļu boreālajiem mežiem un dienvidu lapu koku mežiem, tādēļ šeit sastopamas gan vieniem, gan otriem mežiem raksturīgās sugas. Mēs atrodamie mērenā klimata zonā, kur nokrišņu daudzums pārsniedz iztvaikotā ūdens daudzumu, tādēļ ir pietiekami daudz ūdens, lai veidotos ūdeņiem bagātas upes, ezeri un dažādi mitrāji - purvi, seklie piejūras ezeri, mitrie meži un mitrās pļavas. Latvijā ir relatīvi daudz
mazskartu teritoriju un liela biotopu daudzveidība – jūras piekraste ar kāpu biotopiem, meži, pļavas, jau minētie mitrāji, pamatiežu atsegumi u.c. Katram no tiem ir savs raksturīgais sugu klāsts. Latvijā ir relatīvi daudz pļavu, bet pļavu un atklāto vietu augi sastāda ~1/3 no Latvijas augu sugu skaita.

Iepriekš nosauktie apstākļi veido mozaīkveida ainavu, kas arī ir viens no priekšnoteikumiem lielākai sugu daudzveidībai. Augi, sēnes, to sēklas un sporas ir mūsu ikdienas pavadoņi. Tie ir mums visapkārt, bet cik no tiem mēs atpazīstam? Taču bez sugu daudzveidības pārsteidz arī dažādu sugu formu dažādība!
