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

Seed dormancy cycling and the regulation of dormancy mechanisms to time germination in variable field environments [PDF]
Many molecular mechanisms that regulate dormancy have been identified individually in controlled laboratory studies. However, little is known about how the seed employs this complex suite of mechanisms during dormancy cycling in the variable environment ...

Soil Seed Bank Dynamics in Tithonia diversifolia Dominated Fallowland Vegetation in Ile-Ife Area of Southwestern Nigeria [PDF]
The soil seedbank of Tithonia diversifolia, an invasive species which dominates open waste fallowland vegetation was studied. Two different roadside sites which vary in extent of open waste land were selected.The species composition of the established ...

Soil Seed Banks and Their Relation to Soil Properties in Hilly Landscapes
For the prevention of hilly soils from erosion, a smart selection of crop rotations is very important. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of different agrophytocenoses on seed numbers in the soil runoff sediments and soil seed banks’ relations to soil properties in hilly landscapes. This study analyzes long-term monitoring data from

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
