RodriguésiaSeed rain and seed banks are mechanisms for the entry of propagules that assist in the regeneration of agricultural areas. We hypothesized that the seed rain and seed banks of managed areas (10 and 25 years old) - when compared to non-managed areas ...

Thresholds for sustainable regeneration in urban restoration plantings in Hamilton City, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2014 Urban forest patches have unique environmental and landscape characteristics which may influence the restoration of native plant communities. Urbanisation can lead to a drier and warmer climate, a prevalence of exotic seed sources and isolation from ...

Journal of Landscape Ecology, 2013 Clonal plants are very often among the first species to establish during primary succession. They may rapidly capture available space due to efficient vegetative propagation, but the question arises whether they may also rely on seed bank or seed rain ...

Seed rain in areas with and without bamboo dominance within an urban fragment of the Atlantic Forest
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2014 Understanding the flow of diaspores is fundamental for determining plant population dynamics in a particular habitat, and a lack of seeds is a limiting factor in forest regeneration, especially in isolated forest fragments.

The Study on Seed Rain of Desert Steppe in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region
Shuitu baochi yanjiu, 2013 In recent years,the soil seed bank has been widely reported,but few studies on seed rain has been concerned.Therefore,the desert steppe in Ningxia was selected as the study site.By using the line transect method,the Petri dish for seed rain collector,the

Responses of Corn 704 Single Cross (Zea maize) seed germination to acid rain stress [PDF]
علوم و فناوری بذر ایران, 2015 In order to understand the response mechanism of corn (Zea maize 704 single cross) seed germination and seedling growth to acid rain stress, this study in a randomized complete design with six treatments were performed and then examined by nineteen ...

Effects of frugivore preferences and habitat heterogeneity on seed rain: a multi-scale analysis. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2012 Seed rain mediated by frugivores is influenced by (1) the seed-deposition distances following fruit ingestion, (2) the disperser activity, as determined by its behaviour and habitat preferences, and (3) the structure of the habitat within the landscape ...

Sleeping-tree fidelity of the spider monkey shapes community-level seed-rain patterns in continuous and fragmented rain forests [PDF]
Repeated use of sleeping trees (STs) by frugivores promotes the deposition and aggregation of copious amounts of seed, thus having key implications for seed dispersal and forest regeneration. Seed-rain patterns produced by this behaviour likely depend on
