Patch size, shape and edge distance influence seed predation on a palm species in the Atlantic forest
(2016-04-01)
Seed predation is an important ecological process that affects the abundance, diversity and distribution of plant species, and it is known to be influenced by defaunation and forest fragmentation. Most studies on seed ...
Seed Pubescence and Shape Modulate Adaptive Responses to Fire Cues
(Public Library Science, 2016)
Post-fire recruitment by seeds is regarded as an adaptive response in fire-prone ecosystems. Nevertheless, little is known about which heritable seed traits are functional to the main signals of fire (heat and smoke), thus ...
Applicability of computer vision in seed identification: Deep learning, random forest, and support vector machine classification algorithms
(2021-01-01)
The use of computer image analysis can assist the extraction of morphological information from seeds, potentially serving as a resource for solving taxonomic problems that require extensive training by specialists whose ...
Relationships between physical, morphological, and physiological characteristics of seeds developed at different positions of the ear of two maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids
(Ista, 2002-01-01)
Maize seeds developed at different portions of the ear of two hybrids (one, a large seeded, and the other a small seeded hybrid) were compared as to physical positions, morphological, and physiological characteristics ...

Inferring trait-based mechanisms and variance consequences of abiotic secondary dispersal from the spatio-temporal distribution of a desert soil seed bank
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-01)
Questions: Quantifying the combined effects of seed traits, microsite types, and abiotic dispersal agents on the mean and variance of seed bank density and composition will help understand vegetation dynamics in deserts. ...
Seed morphology in the tribe Chloraeeae (Orchidaceae): combining traditional and geometric morphometrics
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2009-06)
Previous work on orchid seeds showed that characters associated with the seed coat may be useful for classification and phylogeny at a suprageneric level. Seed morphology of several species of the tribe Chloraeeae is ...
Relationship Among Phenolic Contents, Seed Predation, and Physical Seed Traits in Mimosa bimucronata Plants
(Springer, 2009-12-01)
Phenolic contents were compared between Mimosa bimucronata seeds from infested and non-infested fruits to assess induced defense response. By measuring leg length of the bruchid beetle Acanthoscelides schrankiae, we verified ...
