Temperature dependence of germination and growth in Anthurium (Araceae)
Plant Biology, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 184-190, March 2020., 2020 Global change is likely to lead to a 3 °C increase in temperatures in the tropics. The results of our laboratory experiments with 15 Anthurium species suggest that germination will actually benefit from this increase. Abstract By the year 2100, temperatures are predicted to increase by about 6 °C at higher latitudes and about 3 °C in the tropics.
