Survival on land: A dark-grown seedling searching for path

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
To initiate its development into a plant, a small dark-grown seedling (prior to its emergence from the ground) must penetrate through the growth media. The path that the seedling takes during this journey has yet to be explained. As such, we conducted non-destructive tests using CT scans to observe the growth of dark-grown seedlings in soil over time ...

Seed encrusting with salicylic acid: A novel approach to improve establishment of grass species in ecological restoration.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
To achieve global ambitions in large scale ecological restoration, there is a need for approaches that improve the efficiency of seed-based interventions, particularly in overcoming the bottleneck in the transition from germination to seedling ...

Microhabitat and ectomycorrhizal effects on the establishment, growth and survival of Quercus ilex L. seedlings under drought.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The success of tree recruitment in Mediterranean holm oak (Quercus ilex) forests is threatened by the increasing intensity, duration and frequency of drought periods.

Understory functional groups and fire history but not experimental warming drive tree seedling performance in unmanaged boreal forests

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
IntroductionSurvival and growth of tree seedlings are key processes of regeneration in forest ecosystems. However, little is known about how climate warming modulates seedling performance either directly or in interaction with understory vegetation and ...

Assessing the impact of abiotic and biotic factors on seedling survival in an African montane forest

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Tree seedling dynamics underpin subsequent forest structure and diversity as different species/guilds respond variously to abiotic and biotic stresses.

Effects of Nanoparticle Applications on Seedling Survival and Morphological Characteristics in Scots Pine Afforestation

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
This study was conducted in the afforestation area, using bare-root 2+0-year-old Scots pine seedlings from Kastamonu. The study aimed to determine the impact of nanoparticle (NP) applications on seedling morphological characteristics and seedling ...

Dry conditions and disturbance promote liana seedling survival and abundance [PDF]

open access: yesEcology, 2019
AbstractSpecies composition and community structure in Neotropical forests have been severely affected by increases in climate change and disturbance. Among the most conspicuous changes is the proliferation of lianas. These increases have affected not only the carbon storage capacity of forests but also tree dynamics by reducing tree growth and ...

II. Seedling establishment and plant survival [PDF]

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 1977
Seedling establishment and plant survival counts were made at 2, 4, and 15 months after 4 legume species were aerially oversown and hand‐sown during June 1974 on sites at Ballantrae, the Grasslands Division hill country research station near Woodville. Establishment at 4 months was 7.6% from aerially sown seed and 7.9% from hand‐sown seed.

Antelope Bitterbrush Seedling Transplant Survival

open access: yesRangelands, 2000
Antelope bitterbrush is one of the most studied western range shrubs. The browse of this species is a highly preferred and highly nutritional forage for native ungulates and domestic livestock. Antelope bitterbrush occurs from British Columbia to Montana, and south to New Mexico, and California. Using records from the U. S.
