Seed heteromorphy influences seed longevity in Aegilops.
The genus belongs to the secondary gene pool of wheat and has great importance for wheat cultivar improvement. As a genus with only annual species, regeneration from seeds in is crucial. In several species in , spikes produce different seed morphs, both in size and germination patterns. However, little is...Phenology, Seed conservation, Crop wild relatives, Seed dimorphism, Controlled ageing test, Germination ecology, and Soil seed bank

Comparative Germination Ecology of Two Endemic Rhaponticum Species (Asteraceae) in Different Climatic Zones of the Ligurian and Maritime Alps (Piedmont, Italy).
Comparative studies of seed germination of closely related taxa can help increase our understanding of the ecological limitations of cold-adapted plants and forecast how they might respond to global warming. No studies exist on the relationship between thermoclimatic belts that classify mountain life zones according to bioclimatic criteria and the... -
