Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation In 2009, 263 early-stage Matteuccia struthiopteris sporophytes were found on the lawn.
- Observation By 2025, 315 new early-stage sporophytes were added to the sporophytes that survived the disruption.
- Observation A new wave of colonization by spores followed the 2020 damage to the lawn and its 2023 refilling with new soil.
- Association Both colonization waves were associated with filling the lawn with new soil, which indicates spores were present in that soil.
- Observation Sporophytes became visible about two years after the lawn was covered with new soil.
- Observation No fertile sporophytes of Matteuccia struthiopteris appeared during 17 years of observation.
- Observation The lawn sporophytes are genetically identical to sporophytes at the soil source site, by ISSR analysis.
- Observation Green spores of Matteuccia struthiopteris form a short-lived spore bank.
