Effects of grazing on soil seed bank dynamics: An approach with functional groups
The relationship between intensity and timing of cattle grazing on changes in the size and composition of the soil seed bank were investigated in a 3-yr study in a Mediterranean grassland in northeastern Israel. Treatments included manipulations of stocking rates and of grazing regimes, in a factorial design. The retrieved soil seed bank community was rich in species, with 133 species accountin...
متن کاملاثر شدت چرا بر تراکم و تنوع بانک بذر خاک(مطالعه موردی: منطقه قوشه در استان سمنان)
At this research, the effect of the grazing intensity on the features of the soil seed bank in shrub lands in arid zones in Semnan province was studied. The sampling area (500 hectares) was determined including no-grazing area (un-grazed 15 years), the moderate grazing intensity and the high grazing intensity area near the close of interval each other. In each treatment of soil sampling, system...
متن کاملFire effects on composition, density and species diversity vegetation and soil seed bank (Case study: Kangavar rangelands)
Abstract Background and objectives: Fire as a frequent phenomenon in rangelands and because of its complicated and different effects on natural ecosystems, has great importance. Awareness of such fire effects on vegetation cover in point of rangeland management after fire is important and helps better Understanding and sustainable management of rangelands. Changing in plant structure and compo...
متن کاملThe effects of hybridization on the small-scale variation in seed-bank composition of a rare plant species, Erica ciliaris L
The size and composition of the seed bank of a rare species (Erica ciliaris L.) was analysed. E. ciliaris hybridizes with a common relative in southern England (Erica tetralix). The seed banks of these co-occurring species were measured at a number of sites with a range of vegetation types and different management histories. Additional sets of samples were taken from forestry plantations on for...
متن کاملGrazing influences Stipa breviflora seed germination in desert grasslands of the Inner Mongolia Plateau
Seed germination plays an important role in determining the composition and regeneration of plant populations (Stipa breviflora). However, the influencing factors and strategies employed for seed germination in desert grasslands under grazing remain unknown. Therefore, in this study, the reproductive allocation, seed density, seed properties, and corresponding seed germination rates of S. brevi...
