摘      要：The development of modern agriculture has resulted in much homogenization of the landscape consisting of large patches of farmland,so small remnant non-crop habitats especially linear corridors play an important role in the conservation of species and the maintenance of ecosystem ***,little attention has been paid to the effects of corridors structural characteristics on the plant species restricted to such *** this study,we selected three types of corridors including ditch,hedgerow and road,and analyzed their structural *** plant species presented in these corridors were investigated,and the species diversity,abundance and frequency were ***,spatial arrangements of corridors were classified into different types to discuss whether there were significant effects of corridor network on plant *** results show that three types of corridors have different effects on plant species composition and *** one-one combined corridor networks and total network associated by three corridors have more complex structural features than each single type of ***,there is no strong correlation between the corridor networks with their plant *** suggest that carrying out a pointed vegetation survey at corridor intersections to further test the relationships between structural features of corridor and plants is necessary.
