Antelope Bitterbrush Seedling Transplant Survival
Rangelands, 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.

II. Seedling establishment and plant survival [PDF]
New 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.

Oxygen sensing coordinates photomorphogenesis to facilitate seedling survival. [PDF]
Curr Biol, 2015 Successful emergence from the soil is essential for plant establishment in natural and farmed systems. It has been assumed that the absence of light in the soil is the preeminent signal perceived during early seedling development, leading to a distinct morphogenic plan (skotomorphogenesis) [1], characterized by traits providing an adaptive advantage ...

A comparison of the recruitment success of introduced and native species under natural conditions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 It is commonly accepted that introduced species have recruitment advantages over native species. However, this idea has not been widely tested, and those studies that have compared survival of introduced and native species have produced mixed results. We

Seedling density and seedling survival in Alaskan cotton grass tussock tundra
Ecography, 1982 Previous workers have suggested that reproduction by seedling establishment is less important in the maintenance of tundra vegetation than in temperate areas, but few quantitative data are available. Seedling densities were studied at 11 tundra sites in or near disturbed and undisturbed cotton grass tussock tundra in Alaska, and ...

Contrasting effects of grazing on the early stages of woody encroachment in a Neotropical savanna
Basic and Applied Ecology, 2022 Woody encroachment in savannas represents an ecological process of current global interest given its negative impact on ecosystem functioning, particularly on forage production.

The role of dung beetles in seed dispersal in an arid environment
Ecología Austral, 2023 Dung beetles can influence seedling emergence and survival. However, the direction and magnitude of this effect will depend on the functional traits of the dung beetle community and on the prevailing environmental conditions. We studied the role of dung
