Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Seedlings of 15 phanerogam species emerged from the forest soils.
- Observation Seed densities across stands ranged from 239 to 763 seeds per square metre.
- Association Seed depth distributions varied by plant species and forest stand.
- Observation Most seeds occurred at various depths in the humus layer.
- Observation One stand had appreciable Luzula pilosa seed density in mineral soil.
- Observation The depth data suggest Luzula pilosa may maintain a persistent seed bank.
