Postfire regeneration of Aleppo pine – the temporal pattern of seedling recruitment [PDF]
Plant Ecology, 2004 The temporal dynamics of Pinus halepensis seedling emergence, density and survival were studied in detail during the first postfire year, in five Aleppo pine forests of Attica (Stamata, Villia, Avlona, Kapandriti and Ag. Stefanos; burned in June 1990, July 1990, September 1991, September 1992 and July 1993, respectively).

Community-wide spatial and temporal discordances of seed-seedling shadows in a tropical rainforest.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Several factors decrease plant survival throughout their lifecycles. Among them, seed dispersal limitation may play a major role by resulting in highly aggregated (contagious) seed and seedling distributions entailing increased mortality.

Seedling recruitment of perennial grasses in degraded areas of the Patagonian Monte [PDF]
Rangeland Ecology & Management, 2004 The recruitment of perennial grass seedlings in degraded areas of the Patagonian Monte was analyzed. Recolonization of large bare-soil areas by dwarf shrubs or perennial grasses was hypothesized to create favorable microsites for grass seedling recruitment.

Seedling recruitment analysis results.
, 2013 Results of split-split plot analysis of seedling recruitment across two shade treatments (shade, no shade), two water treatments (water, control), two gradient locations (mesic, xeric) and four collection periods (spring and fall, 2006 and 2007).

Significance of seed dispersal by the largest frugivore for large-diaspore trees
Scientific Reports, 2022 How do large-bodied frugivores contribute to seed dispersal of large-diaspore plants? This study examined seed dispersal effectiveness for two large-diaspore tree species, Astrotrichilia asterotricha (AA) and Abrahamia deflexa (AD), in a Madagascan ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 Mutualistic interactions between plants and animals can affect both plant and animal communities, and potentially leave imprints on plant demography. Yet, no study has simultaneously tested how trait variation in plant resources shapes the diversity of ...

The impact of herbivores on the natural regeneration of temperate deciduous woodland [PDF]
, 1999 Many studies have reported deficient or intermittent patterns of natural regeneration in temperate deciduous woodland. The present study aimed to assess the relative impact of herbivore-mediated plant mortality on the natural regeneration dynamics of ...
