Plant and fungal collections: Current status, future perspectives.
Societal Impact Statement Plant and fungal specimens provide the auditable evidence that a particular organism occurred at a particular place, and at a particular point in time, verifying past occurrence and distribution. They also document the aspects of human exploration and culture. Collectively specimens form a global asset with significant... -

Trade‐off between seed dispersal in space and time.
Seed movement and delayed germination have long been thought to represent alternative risk‐spreading strategies, but current evidence covers limited scales and yields mixed results. Here we present the first global‐scale test of a negative correlation between dispersal and dormancy. The result demonstrates a strong and consistent pattern that species with...Chen, Si‐Chong ; Poschlod, Peter ; Antonelli, Alexandre ; Liu, Udayangani ; Dickie, John B.
