description | The riparian vegetation has been strongly fragmented by human actions modifying its structure and ecosystem functions. We analyzed the relationship between soil properties and riparian vegetation variables from a tributary of the Tacotalpa River in Tabasco. Three zones were selected along the course: low, medium and high; eight 5 m × 50 m units were established on each sampling zone and all trees and shrubs with DAP ≥ 1cm were counted. The species were identified and information about the importance value index (IVI), species diversity (H’) and similarity index (IS) was generated. A soil sample was collected on each sampling unit on a depth of 0 cm - 30 cm, and texture properties, pH, organic matter (OM), total nitrogen (Nt), available phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) were analyzed. All variables were analyzed using SPSS and PAST statistical packages. On the three riparian vegetation areas, 1681 individuals, 38 families and 131 species were recorded; the Fabaceae, Euphorbiaceae and Moraceae families were the most representative. The diversity was similar in all three zones and the similarity ranged between 31.3% and 53.3%. The contents of Nt, MO and P were higher in soil of the upper area with most preservedvegetation and lower in low and middle areas with secondary vegetation. These edaphic variables were positively correlated with tree height (p < 0.01), being evident the beneficial effect of plant-soil interactions. |

La vegetación ribereña ha sido fuertemente fragmentada por acciones antrópicas modificando su estructura y sus funciones ecosistémicas. Se analizaron las variables de vegetación ribereña y su relación con las propiedades del suelo en un afluente del río Tacotalpa, Tabasco. A lo largo del cauce se seleccionaron tres zonas: baja, media y alta; en cada zona se establecieron ocho unidades de muestreo de 5 m × 50 m y se censaron todos los árboles y arbustos con DAP ≥ 1 cm. Se identificaron las especies y se generó información sobre el índice de valor de importancia (IVI), diversidad de especies (H') e índice de similitud (IS). En cada unidad de muestreo se colectó una muestra de suelo a una profundidad de 0 cm -30 cm y se analizaron las propiedades textura, pH, materia orgánica (MO), nitrógeno total (Nt), fósforo asimilable (P) y potasio (K). Las variables se analizaron con los paquetes estadísticos SPSS y PAST. En las tres zonas de vegetación ribereña se registraron 1681 individuos, 38 familias y 131 especies; las familias Fabaceae, Euphorbiaceae y Moraceae fueron las más representativas. La diversidad fue similar en las tres zonas y la similitud osciló entre 31.3% y 53.3%. Los contenidos de Nt, MO y P fueron mayores en suelos de la zona alta con vegetación más conservada y menores en las zonas baja y media con vegetación secundaria; estas variables edáficas se correlacionaron positivamente con la altura de los árboles (p < 0.01), siendo evidente el efecto benéfico de la interacción planta-suelo.
