The soil seed bank in abandoned tropical pastures: source of regeneration or invasion?
We assessed the availability of both pioneer and non-native species in the soil seed bank of old-growth forest and recently abandoned pasture, to evaluate whether the soil seed bank in these pastures represents a source of regeneration of species from ...

Assessment of seedling emergence method in soil seed bank in two states of washing and non-washing [PDF]
This study aimed to evaluate the results of soil seed bank in Tarbiat Modares Lowland Experimental Forest by using the two methods of washing and non-washing. Therefore, four main plots (40×40 m2)with each of them comprising 4 sub quadrats of 400 m2 were

Lolium multiflorum seeds in the soil: I. Soil seed bank dynamics in a no til system [PDF]
The objective of the study was to characterize annual ryegrass seed population dynamics, managed for natural re-sowing, in no til systems in rotation with soybean, in different chronosequences An area was cultivated for two years with soybean, left as fallow land for the next two years and then cultivated again with soybean for the next two years.

The species composition in the aboveground vegetation and soil seed bank (SSB) were described for the dry Afromontane forest patches of Northwestern Ethiopia. Plots (30 × 30 m) were established to collect the vegetation and environmental data.

A biomimetic artificial extracellular matrix is assembled directly on Pseudomonas fluorescens by co‐assembling amyloid‐like lysozyme and alginate at the cell surface. This conformal nanocoating acts as both a hydration buffer and a physiological priming layer, markedly enhancing desiccation tolerance, seed adhesion, storage stability, and biocontrol ...

Similarity between seed bank and herb layer in a natural deciduous temperate lowland forest
Forest seed banks mostly studied in managed forests proved to be small, species poor and not reflecting aboveground species composition. Yet studies conducted in undisturbed communities indicate a different seed bank characteristic. Therefore we aimed at
