Longevity of seeds and soil seed bank of the Cerrado tree Miconia chartacea (Melastomataceae)
(2015-12-01)
Miconia chartacea is a widely distributed tree in Brazil, occurring at altitudes ranging from 300 m to 1900 m in the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest biomes. In this work we attempted to classify M. chartacea seeds ...
Seed limitation of woody plants in Neotropical savannas
(Springer, 2012-02)
The failure of seeds to arrive at all suitable sites (seed limitation) greatly affects plant distribution and abundance. In contrast to tropical forests, the degree of seed limitation in Neotropical savannas is unclear ...
Effects of bamboo stands on seed rain and seed limitation in a rainforest
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
Seed production in Polylepis australis (Rosaceae) as influenced by tree size, livestock and interannual climate variations in the mountains of central Argentina
(Springer, 2013-03)
The expansion of tree species within a grassland-woodland matrix relies heavily on an abundant seed crop, which may be affected by many factors; among these, browsing by livestock has gone largely ignored. Here we explore ...
Direct seeding to restore tropical seasonal forests: effects of green manure and hydrogel amendment on tree species performances and weed infestation
(2021-01-01)
Although direct tree seeding may be a potentially useful restoration practice, many biotic and abiotic barriers prevent seedling emergence and early development, reducing its success and applicability. To overcome these ...
Seed movement between the native forest and monoculture tree plantations in the southern Atlantic forest: A functional approach
(Elsevier Science, 2018-12)
The native vegetation within tree plantations increases the suitability for native biodiversity; however, the regeneration of this vegetation depends on the movement of seeds from the native forest by vertebrates and wind. ...
