Masting by Eighteen New Zealand Plant Species: The Role of Temperature as a Synchronizing Cue [PDF]
, 2002 Masting, the intermittent production of large flower or seed crops by a population of perennial plants, can enhance the reproductive success of participating plants and drive fluctuations in seed-consumer populations and other ecosystem components over ...
