Allometric relationships between seed mass and seedling characteristics reveal trade-offs for neotropical gap-dependent species

Daws, Matthew I.; Ballard, Christopher; Mullins, Christopher E.; Garwood, Nancy C.; Murray, Brian; Pearson, Timothy R. H.; Burslem, David F. R. P. (2007)

A seed size-seed number trade-off exists because smaller seeds are produced in greater number but have a lower probability of establishment. This reduced establishment success of smaller-seeded species may be determined ...
Germination responses to water potential in Neotropical pioneers suggest large-seeded species take more risks

Daws, Matthew I.; Crabtree, Lora M.; Dalling, James W.; Mullins, Christopher E.; Burslem, David F. R. P. (2008)

Background and Aims: In neotropical forests, very small-seeded pioneer species ( mg seed mass) recruit preferentially in small tree fall gaps and at gap edges, but large-seeded pioneers do not. Since water availability is ...
