Acta Botânica BrasílicaCerrado tree species can survive fire by resprouting. Generally, large and less damaged plants produce new branches and leaves from stem buds (aerial), whereas small and highly injured individuals would resprout from the stem base or from underground ...

Resprouting from roots in four Brazilian tree species
Revista de Biología Tropical, 2007 Previous studies pointed out that species richness and high density values within the Leguminosae in Brazilian forest fragments affected by fire could be due, at least partially, to the high incidence of root sprouting in this family. However, there are few studies of the factors that induce root sprouting in woody plants after disturbance.

How can miscanthus fields be reintegrated into a crop rotation?
GCB Bioenergy, 2019 The bioeconomy, with its aim of replacing fossil by biobased resources, is increasingly focusing on biomass production from perennial crops, such as miscanthus.

Fire as an evolutionary pressure shaping plant traits [PDF]
, 2011 6 páginas, 2 figuras, 1 cuadro.Traits, such as resprouting, serotiny and germination by heat and smoke, are adaptive in fire-prone environments. However, plants are not adapted to fire per se but to fire regimes.

Forests, 2023 High temperatures threaten tree survival and regeneration. A few pine species, such as Pinus oocarpa and Pinus canariensis, resprout after complete defoliation, a likely consequence of evolving in volcanic environments. Pinus pinea and Pinus pinaster rely on other mechanisms to survive wildfires.

Projected changes in Australian fire regimes during the 21st century and consequences for ecosystems [PDF]
, 2017 Climate projections show Australia becoming significantly warmer during the 21st century, while precipitation decreases over much of the continent. Such changes are generally considered to increase wildfire risk. Nevertheless, using a process-based model

Pathogens, 2022 The invasive Oomycete pathogen Phytophthora ramorum has killed millions of susceptible oak and tanoak trees in California and southern Oregon forests and is responsible for losses in revenue to the nursery industry through mitigation activities.

Canopy recovery after drought dieback in holm-oak Mediterranean forests of Catalonia (NE Spain) [PDF]
, 2004 Climate change is likely to produce more frequent and longer droughts in the Mediterranean region, like that of 1994, which produced important changes in the Quercus ilex forests, with up to 76% of the trees showing complete canopy dieback.

Oikos, EarlyView.Grasslands, by definition, are dominated by graminoids. Nevertheless, forbs also make up a substantial part of vascular plant diversity in grasslands and are important resources of mammalian herbivores. However, forb recruitment is constrained by successful dominant graminoids, limiting access to safe sites for germination.

Remote SensingIn many hardwood forests, resprouting is a common response to disturbance and basal resprouts may represent a substantial component of the forest understory, especially post-wildfire.
