Seed dormancy varies greatly between species, clades, communities, and regions. We
propose that fireprone ecosystems create ideal conditions for the selection of seed …

Light increases the germinability of positively photoblastic seeds and inhibits the
germination of negative ones. In an area where plant-generated smoke from fire is a …

The promoting effect of smoke-derived chemicals (eg karrikinolide and cyanohydrin) on
germination in many plants from Mediterranean-type ecosystems such as South Africa and …

Akdeniz Havzası, milyonlarca yıldan beri yangınlara maruz kalan ve yangınlar sonucunda
şekillenmiş bir biyocoğrafyadır. Bu nedenle Akdeniz Havzası'ndaki yanan alanların …

Available studies are far from giving a complete figure for the germination requirements of
many Mediterranean Basin species. In this study, we investigated the germination properties …

Heat shock-stimulated germination is frequently considered a trait restricted to a few plant
families with impermeable seed coats in the Mediterranean Basin. We aimed to ascertain …

摘要火作为一个基础的生态因子, 对森林, 草地等陆地生态系统的结构和功能有着重要的影响.
种子萌发是种子植物的重要生活史阶段, 也是火后植被更新和恢复的主要途径 …

Fire is a widespread disturbance that affects plant individuals and populations. In fire-prone
environments, such as Mediterranean-type ecosystems, many species are stimulated to …

Smoke water (SW) is produced naturally or artificially from burning plant material. It provides
the germination of the seeds of many plants and accelerates the growth and development of …

Smoke is one of the fire-related cues that can alter vegetation communities' compositions, by
promoting or excluding different plant species. For over 30 years, smoke-derived …
