Regeneration Strategies in Seed Plants: A Continuum Shaping Survival. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Seed plants dominate terrestrial ecosystems in part because regeneration is not a single event, but a coordinated sequence of traits acting across time and space. Here, we synthesize regeneration strategies in seed plants as a continuous, integrated framework spanning pre‐germination regulation, germination timing, seedling emergence, soil seed banking,

Geographic patterns of tree dispersal modes in Amazonia and their ecological correlates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Aim: To investigate the geographic patterns and ecological correlates in the geographic distribution of the most common tree dispersal modes in Amazonia (endozoochory, synzoochory, anemochory and hydrochory).

Investigating Genetic Spillage in a <i>Mimulus cardinalis</i> (Syn. <i>Erythranthe cardinalis</i>) Common Garden Experiment. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
In this study, we investigated a possible spillage of genetic material from an existing common garden experiment of monkeyflower and found no evidence of the unknown population of monkeyflower to be escapees but represent a natural population in that region.

Sorting of seeds by hydrochory [PDF]

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, 2008
AbstractThe species composition of riparian vegetation is determined by a variety of processes, including the dispersal of seeds. The seed types that end up at certain locations are determined by their particular characteristics as well as the prevailing hydrology and the physical characteristics of the river channel.

Seasonality, dispersal modes, and optimal germination times modulate the fruiting of tropical tree species [PDF]

open access: yesRodriguésia, 2023
We investigated the associations of seasonality, dispersal modes and seed germination speeds with the fruiting of Clusia nemorosa, Pleroma fissinervium, and Vochysia pyramidalis in a gallery forest, Chapada Diamantina, Brazil.

Reproductive ecology of Allmania nodiflora, Celosia argentea var. margaritacea, and Digera muricata (Amaranthaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesBotanica Serbica, 2018
Allmania nodiflora, Celosia argentea var. margaritacea, and Digera muricata are annual herbaceous weeds which reproduce exclusively by seed. The plants appear in June, while flowering time is August-February in agricultural fields and August-October ...

The Multiple Roles of Genetics on Freshwater Macrophyte Functional Traits in the Interplay With the Environment: A Review. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
This review examines how genetic and environmental factors jointly shape functional trait variation in aquatic plants. By synthesizing the literature from the last fifteen years, we analyze the roles of genetic diversity, epigenetic variation, genome size, and gene expression in relation to phenotypic plasticity, natural selection, and genetic drift ...

Rivers as a potential dispersing agent of the invasive tree Acacia dealbata

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2022
Background The silver wattle Acacia dealbata is a fast-growing tree from Australia that has become naturalised in different regions of the world, attaining invasive status in most of them. In Chile, A.
