Journal ArticleDOI
Seed dormancy in isanthus brachiatus (labiatae)
Jerry M. Baskin,Carol C. Baskin +1 more
Journal ArticleDOI
Intermediate complex morphophysiological dormancy in seeds of the cold desert sand dune geophyte Eremurus anisopterus (Xanthorrhoeaceae; Liliaceae s.l.).
TL;DR: Embryos in after-ripened seeds of E. anisopterus can grow at low temperatures in late autumn, but if the soil is dry in autumn then growth is delayed until snowmelt wets the soil in early spring, which means seeds can germinate at a time when sand moisture conditions in the desert are suitable for seedling establishment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological life history of the facultative woodland biennial Arabis laevigata variety laevigata (Brassicaceae): seed dispersal1
TL;DR: Number of seeds retained on dispersing plants declined exponentially with increase in time after beginning of dispersal, and the dispersal distance-seed density curve was concave.
Book ChapterDOI
Causes of Within-Species Variations in Seed Dormancy and Germination Characteristics
Carol C. Baskin,Jerry M. Baskin +1 more
TL;DR: The chapter illustrates seed polymorphism, and cleistogamous or chasmogamous seeds representing interplay of genetics, environment, and genetics X environmental factors along with a discussion of their consequences on seedling recruitment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The necessity for testing germination of fresh seeds in studies on diaspore heteromorphism as a life-history strategy
TL;DR: It is concluded that it is imperative that fresh seeds be tested for germination in order to be certain that the correct relationship between dispersal and dormancy is elucidated, and thus that thecorrect interpretation is made concerning life-history strategy and bet-hedging, in dimorphic species.
