Temperature thresholds of physically dormant seeds and plant functional response to fire: variation among species and relative impact of climate change
Variation in dormancy thresholds among species is rarely studied but may provide a basis to better understand the mechanisms controlling population persistence. Incorporating dormancy-breaking temperature thresholds into existing trait frameworks could improve predictions regarding seed bank persistence, and subsequently species resilience in response to fire, climate change and anthropogenic m...
متن کاملSeed dormancy-breaking and germination requirements of
Dormancy breaking and germination requirements were investigated in seeds of Ferula ovina and Ferula gummosa. Seeds of rather species were collected from north and eastern-north rangelands of Iran. Seeds of each of the species were subjected to different treatments including various levels of GA3, chilling and combination of GA3 and chilling (GA-chilling). In contrast to treated seeds, non-trea...
متن کاملA STUDY ON SEED GERMINATION OF AVENA LUDOVICIANA AND THE EFFECTIVE FACTORS IN SEED DORMANCY BREAKING
Wild oat has two seeds in a spikelet that they have different physiological behavior in regard of seed germiantion. The upper seed of spikelet is smaller and has deeper dormancy than the lower seed. The range of temperature for germination is 5˚C to 25 ˚C and optimal temperature is 15˚C. Both kinds of seeds showed the more germination rate in low temperatures so that 5 and 10˚C are better...
متن کاملLolium multiflorum SEEDS IN THE SOIL: I. SOIL SEED BANK DYNAMICS IN A NO TIL SYSTEM1
The objective of the study was to characterize annual ryegrass seed population dynamics, managed for natural re-sowing, in no til systems in rotation with soybean, in different chronosequences An area was cultivated for two years with soybean, left as fallow land for the next two years and then cultivated again with soybean for the next two years. The four chronosequences represented different ...
متن کاملEvaluation of different hormonal and temperature treatments on dormancy breaking of Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) seed
Extended Abstract Introduction: Lavandula angustifolia L. is one of the most important plants belonging to Lamiaceae which has abundant use in traditional and pharmacological medicine. Lavender seed dormancy is one of the problems in producing seedlings which increases seed consumption. In this regard, an experiment was carried out to investigate different treatments for seed dormancy eliminat...
