Seed dormancy explains plant response to mass mortality events

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 907-921, April 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mass mortality events (MMEs) are large‐scale, rapid die‐offs resulting in extreme inputs of carrion biomass. Recent work demonstrates the effects of increasing carrion biomass on plant communities modulated by vertebrate scavengers and herbivores.
