Fire regimen and spread of plants naturalized in central Chile

Los incendios son una antigua practica del uso del suelo en la region mediterranea de Chile central. Actualmente en esta region, los incendios son principalmente de origen humano y los antecedentes publicados permiten sugerir que su regimen esta asociado a la expansion de especies exoticas naturalizadas. Las investigaciones sobre el efecto de los incendios sobre la vegetacion mediterranea tanto nativa como exotica en Chile central ha incrementado notablemente durante los ultimos anos. El objetivo de nuestra revision fue resaltar los nuevos conocimientos en esta area de la investigacion durante los ultimos 30 anos y contribuir a una sistematizacion y a un modelo conceptual explicito que incorpore los efectos del regimen de incendios en la expansion de plantas exoticas y en los mecanismos involucrados. Para ello se describe el regimen de incendios que actualmente se presenta en una region de Chile central y se realiza una exploracion de la literatura para conocer principalmente los atributos de la germinacion de las semillas sensibles a incendio que se encuentran en especies exoticas que estan naturalizadas abundantemente en Chile central. De acuerdo a los estudios abordados, se han descrito diversos mecanismos que involucran el efecto de los incendios sobre la expansion de plantas exoticas en Chile central. Rasgos de historia de vida, tolerancia, facilitacion y retroalimentacion positiva entre plantas exoticas y frecuencia de incendios son los mecanismos que han sido documentados en la literatura. Finalmente, proponemos un modelo conceptual que representa la dispersion de especies exoticas asistida por los seres humanos y la expansion de especies naturalizadas por el efecto de los regimenes de incendios, que ayuda a explicar la composicion y estructura del matorral de Chile central en un estado inicial de la sucesion.
