The aim of the research was a comparison of soil seed bank, formed by the influence of different crop production systems (organic, integrated, conventional and monoculture of winter wheat) with weed infestation in the winter wheat.

Regenerative potential and functional composition of soil seed banks in remnant evergreen broad-leaved forests under urbanization in South China [PDF]
Soil seed banks can act as an important source in forest regeneration, and the information on the seed bank composition is vital for determining the resilience of plant communities under severe environments such as urban settings.

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

Weed seed bank dynamics under various rotations and field production resources
Weed seed bank dynamics in corn, sugar beet and wheat plots in rotation with wheat were studied under conventional and ecological management systems during 2 years. The experiment was laid out in a split- plot design in a randomized complete block, where

Effect of Coriaria arborea on seed banks during primary succession on Mt Tarawera, New Zealand [PDF]
An experiment was conducted over two years to investigate the effect of Coriaria arborea, a native nitrogen-fixing shrub, on soil seed banks at sites representing a post-volcanic successional sequence on Mt Tarawera, New Zealand.

Estimating soil seed bank characteristics in ponderosa pine forests using vegetation and forest-floor data [PDF]
Soil seed banks are important for vegetation management because they contain propagules of species that may be considered desirable or undesirable for site colonization after management and disturbance events. Knowledge of seed bank size and composition

Changes in seed dispersal processes and the potential for between-patch connectivity for an arid land daisy [PDF]
Dispersal is a major and critical process in population biology that has been particularly challenging to study. Animals can have major roles in seed dispersal even in species that do not appear specifically adapted to animal-aided dispersal.
