Thermal Niche for Seed Germination and Species Distribution Modelling of Swietenia macrophylla King (Mahogany) under Climate Change Scenarios.
Swietenia macrophylla is an economically important tree species propagated by seeds that lose their viability in a short time, making seed germination a key stage for the species recruitment. The objective of this study was to determine the cardinal temperatures and thermal time for seed germination of S. macrophylla; and... -

Potential Distribution of Cedrela odorata L. in Mexico according to Its Optimal Thermal Range for Seed Germination under Different Climate Change Scenarios.
Cedrela odorata is a native tree of economic importance, as its wood is highly demanded in the international market. In this work, the current and future distributions of C. odorata in Mexico under climate change scenarios were analyzed according to their optimal temperature ranges for seed germination. For the present... -

Thermal niche for germination and early seedling establishment at the leading edge of two pine species, under a changing climate
Pines are the most popular species for reforestation in Mexico, however reforestation programs have little success due to a high mortality of pine seedlings. Shifts in the distribution range due to climate change has been predicted for many species specially at their distribution borders. Understanding the thermal limits of germination... -

Interaction of functional and environmental traits on seed germination of the multipurpose tree Flacourtia indica
Flacourtia indica (Salicaceae) is a multipurpose tree native to tropical regions of Africa and India, where it is mainly used for food and medicines. Its use in reforestation is limited by poor knowledge of its seed biology and germination ecology. The aim of this study was to determine how its...
