The metagenomics of soil bacteria and fungi and the release of mechanical dormancy in hard seeds.
Persistence in the soil is a function of seed physiology, particularly non-germination and inherent lifespan. However, for seeds with mechanical dormancy, non-germination is also a function of the composition and activity of the soil microbiota. We attempted to screen out microorganisms in the soil that can specifically and rapidly decompose... -

Seed germination behaviour of the narrow endemic Daphne arbuscula (Thymelaeaceae) compared to the more widespread Daphne cneorum.
Diminished reproduction success in species with narrow distribution ranges might be one of the factors responsible for their limited dispersal and colonization abilities. We investigated here various aspects of the seed biology of the West Carpathian endemic (Thymelaeaceae) and compared it with its more widespread relative . In both species,...Di Sacco, Alice ; Gajdošová, Zuzana ; Slovák, Marek ; Turisová, Ingrid ; Turis, Peter …
