Life strategies in the xerothermous vegetation complex of the Lower Unstrut Valley (Saxony‐Anhalt, Germany)

TL;DR: A strong correlation of life strategies - as a system of co-evolved adaptive traits - to habit at conditions resp.

Germination responses of Rubus palmatus var. coptophyllus and Rubus parvifolius seeds with different burial durations to a variable light and temperature regime

Wajirou Suzuki
- 01 Aug 1997 - 
TL;DR: These seed dormancy traits of the twoRubus species may explain the differences in germination strategy in their habitats: R.coptophyllus seems to have adapted to the seasonal occurrence of favorable growing conditions after the dormancy breakage, while R. parvifolius seems to has adapted to favorable conditions created by temporally unpredictable disturbances.

The biology and non-chemical control of Barren Brome (Anisantha sterilis (L.) Nevski

TL;DR: Barren brome has increased as a problem weed in cultivated fields being favoured by the growing of continuous winter cereals and the adoption of non-ploughing techniques (ADAS, 1981).

Plant functional groups based on vegetative and reproductive traits in a subtropical forest community

TL;DR: It is revealed that of all the functional traits studied, twig sizes may exert a greatest impact on the traits assemblages and PFTs’ performances in this community, i.e., twig size may act as an important determinant for P FTs at the species level.

Effect of strip seeding of Trifolium repens on a sward under continuous cattle grazing

TL;DR: To introduce desired plant species into grasslands, strip seeding is a possible method and white clover is an important plant for the pasture sward, since it contributes to a high quality forage and also fixes atmospheric N for its own growth and for the growth of the grasses and forbs.
