Abstract

The traditional exploitation of Cistus ladanifer L. (Cistaceae) species such as medicinal and aromatic plant (MAP) was studied for show the biodiversity changes associated to harvest and posterior regeneration. The results show significant increase of the species richness in all conditions with special high first year after harvest (>31 units), and in the Poaceae and Fabaceae families. Also, the geophytes habit increases and the reproductive capacities of the species. Globally the MAP exploitation of C ladanifer is beneficious for the biodiversity of ecosystem.
