Examples of secondary species

secondary species
The community comprised three core species, many secondaryspecies and a few satellite species.
Species showing a low percentage of vegetative regeneration (< 20%) were more common in primary (11 spp) than in secondaryspecies (3 spp).
When noninoculated, the pioneers and early secondaryspecies had lower concentrations of the macronutrients than the species belonging to late-successional groups.
Our study revealed the highest infection parameters of core and secondaryspecies during the spring and the lowest infection rate during the autumn (table 2).
The remaining species were considered as secondaryspecies.
In contrast to primary forest species, secondaryspecies exhibit a peak at early and intermediate ages of the chronosequence.
Inoculation significantly increased the content of minerals in the pioneer and early secondary species, but there was no difference in the late-secondary and climax species.

Secondaryspecies occurred mainly or exclusively in successional stands and/or the fire-degraded stand, while primary species were encountered chiefly in mature stands.
Secondaryspecies are expressed as a proportion of sites occupied by the primary species.
As the forest matures, primary species outcompete secondaryspecies.
There is a balance between the linear relationships for primary species (positive) and secondaryspecies (negative) along the chronosequence.
