Sažetak
Weeds represent a heterogeneous group of plants, usually without commercial or aesthetic value. The weed flora of the city of Mostar is very diverse. The aim of this study is to analyze the composition of the weed flora in Mostar and assess their allergenic potential. During the vegetation period of 2022 and 2023, the mapping of allergenic weeds in the city of Mostar was carried out. A total of 45 allergenic weeds were identified, which are distributed in 15 families. Of these, 17 species were classified as highly allergenic (9.65%), 6 species are moderately allergenic (3.41%), while 22 species are the most allergenic (12.5%). The most abundant species belong to the Poaceae family, which have a well-defined pollination period. Among the highly allergenic weeds in the City of Mostar are Chenopodium album L., Artemisia vulgaris L., Plantago maior L., Amaranthus retroflexus L. and Dactylis glomerata L. The allergenic weeds with low allergenic potential, Brassica nigra (L.) Koch, are exceptionally abundant. The analysis of flora elements shows the presence of 8 flora elements with the highest prevalence of widely distributed weeds, 14 weed species (36.8%). The Eurasian flora element is represented by 10 species (26.3%), cultivated and adventitious weed species are represented by 8 species (21.05%), and the other flora elements are represented by two species or one species.
