Global germination
Title: Global synthesis of the seed germination niche above the treeline
Project leader: Eduardo Fernández-Pascual (University of Oviedo, Spain)
Funding: Marie Curie Actions / Government of Asturias (CLARIN COFUND)
Description: Which environmental signals drive seed germination above the treeline? Are these signals different from those of the lowlands? We synthetized the available information on seed germination from Europe, China, Australia and South America to produce a global evaluation of the seed germination niche of alpine species. Check the final publication in New Phytologist.
