AB  - The Danube is an outstanding river: It links more countries than any other river in the world. The Danube River Basin (DRB) collects waters from the territories of 19 European nations and it forms the international boundaries for eight of these. The river's largely eastward course has served as a corridor for both migration and trade, and a boundary between east and west strongly guarded for thousands of years. The multi-cultural setting makes transboundary issues extremely challenging. In this chapter we characterize and synthesize the natural features of the main river, its 10 major tributaries and the Danube Delta. We present extensive information and data on biodiversity, climate, topography and hydrology. We also describe in detail stressors like land use, sediment regime and (hydro-)morphology alteration, pollution, non-native species introduction or fragmentation by dams and also socio-economic properties. We reflect about their major, adverse consequences for the functioning of river ecosystems in the entire basin. We also introduce river basin authorities such as the International Commission for the Protection of the Danube River (ICPDR) identified as important and useful platforms for dialogue and debate of appropriate goals and their implementation, involvement of stakeholders and the public, but also as "translators" of scientific results.

Additionally, the chapter contains maps, photographs and data tables that allow in depth analyses of and comparison between physical and biological features of the Danube River Basin and other rivers in Europe.

AB  - The European black poplar (Populus nigra L.) is a tree species that once
   had the central role in the development of riparian ecosystems in a
   great part of Europe and Asia. During centuries, it is harassed by the
   riverside's urbanization, drainage of wetlands, and controlled river
   management, and compromised by intercrossing with other poplar species
   and cultivated hybrids. With the aim to perceive its genetic diversity
   and integrity along the Danube River, 12 natural P. nigra forests from
   corresponding protected areas were assessed using eight highly
   polymorphic microsatellite loci and win3 genetic marker. In the sample
   set, among individuals morphologically recognized as P. nigra, 2.28\%
   were identified as P. x euramericana hybrids and those were excluded
   from further analyses. High number of alleles and high heterozigosity
   have been observed in all populations. Only 2.95 \% of total genetic
   variance was recorded among populations, while the pattern of genetic
   differentiation corresponds to the isolation by geographic distance. It
   was found that one population had experienced a recent reduction in
   population size. We infer that genetic integrity and variation of
   European black poplar is not compromised within the studied areas which
   are, therefore, able to provide high-quality genetic material of
   nonhybrid P. nigra for maintaining and promoting metapopulations along
   the Danube River.
