Seed rain and seed limitation in a planted gallery forest in Brazil
(Blackwell Publishing, 2006-12-01)
With seeds collected monthly during one year from 53 1-m(2) seed traps, we investigated the seed rain and seed limitation in a gallery forest planted in 1994 in SE Brazil. Contrasting animal- (zoochorous) and wind-dispersed ...

Seed mass, seed number and evolutionary trade off across geographic distribution: do they explain invasiveness in Eschscholzia californica, central Chile?
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
Background: Seed mass is a life history trait that is related to invasiveness. Under limiting conditions, a trade-off is observed whereby an increase in seed mass occurs at the expense of seed numbers; if the above trade-off ...

Dormancy as exaptation to protect mimetic seeds against deterioration before dispersal
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2010)
Mimetic seeds simulate the appearance of fleshy fruits and arilled seeds without producing nutritive tissues as a reward for seed dispersers. In this strategy of seed dispersal, seeds may remain attached to the mother plant ...
Bottom-up and top-down effects in a pre-dispersal seed predation system: are non-predated seeds damaged?
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2010-01-01)
Seed predators that severely affect seed germination rates are well known for many plant species. Here, we hypothesised that due to differences in resource allocation within fruits, seed predation can negatively affect ...

Effect of seed vigor and sowing densities on the yield and physiological potential of wheat seeds
(Abrates-assoc Brasileira Technologia Sementes, 2021-01-01)
Initial seed vigor and sowing density interact in establishment of plants in the field, and can thus affect expression of the plasticity of the wheat crop and the yield and physiological quality of the seeds produced. The ...
