Summary Weeds continue to have major impacts on crop production in spite of efforts to eliminate them. Most weed species rely on seed for regeneration and persistence. The species composition and density of weed seed in the soil vary greatly and are closely linked to the cropping history of the land.

After dispersal most seeds undergo a period of dormancy. Depending on the species and the prevailing conditions, dormancy may last from a few days to many decades (or longer). In some species it is normal for a proportion of the seeds to become incorporated into the soil and become part of a store or ‘bank’ of seeds which can be drawn upon ...

Seed features, germination and seed bank
2001Most parasitic weeds produce a large number of seeds per single plant. In context with the requirement for the stimulation of germination this high reproduction forms part of their strategy to survive. Before the last decade, little attention was paid to the reproductive capacity of these weeds, and numerous recent papers refer to non-realistic data on

Ex Situ conservation involves the maintenance of germplasm away from its original location. Samples of a species, subspecies or variety (cultivar) are sampled, transported and conserved either as living collections of plants in field gene banks, botanic gardens or arboreta, or as samples of seed, tubers, tissue expiants, pollen or DNA maintained under ...

This chapter summarizes current ideas about various aspects of seed bank ecology. Although most plant communities have at least some persistent seeds in the soil, the size of seed banks varies greatly from one habitat to another. Thompson and Silvertown present tables of data on seed density in soils from a wide range of studies.
