Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of soil warming on plant recruitment
Lindsey J. Thompson,Shahid Naeem +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated, using a simple field experiment, that soil warming is sufficient, independent of other cues, to potentially alter the recruitment of Betula pendula seedlings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deep complex morphophysiological dormancy in Sanicula europaea (Apiaceae) fits a recurring pattern of dormancy types in genera with an Arcto-Tertiary distribution
TL;DR: Comparing the results with other Apiaceae in a phylogenetic and biogeographic framework enables us to determine whether stasis in seed dormancy has occurred in Sanicula, and shows that the embryo elongates within the seed during winter, when temperatures are low.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alternative Respiration Pathways and Secondary Metabolism in Plants with Different Adaptive Strategies under Mineral Deficiency
TL;DR: The costs of adaptation respiration, the contribution of different biochemical pathways of respiration and alternative oxidases to the adaptation to mineral deficiency were compared in plant species representing different types of adaptive strategies: ruderal (Ru) and predominantly stress-tolerant type (St).
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetation zonation as related to the salt tolerance of species of brackish riverbanks
TL;DR: Nine riverbank species were grown in a range of salinities to estimate salt tolerances, and these tolerances are compared with the species' distributions upstream-downstream and upshore-downshore on brackish riverbanks.
Journal Article
Effect of disturbance on the vegetation of peat bogs with Pinus rotundata in the Třeboň Basin, Czech Republic.
TL;DR: Regeneration of peat bog vegetation was faster after a natural than after human-made disturbance, and Regeneration after industrial peat harvesting only occurred if the groundwater table level remained high.
