• Ecological strategies begin at germination: Traits, plasticity and survival in the first 4 days of plant life (2020, background): “Studies suggest that inter- and intraspecific variation in seedling morphology in the days after germination can be substantial (Poorter, Remkes & Lambers 1990; Evans & Etherington 1991) and influence recruitment (Larson et al. 2015; Leger, Atwater & James 2019).”
• Advances in restoration ecology: rising to the challenges of the coming decades (2015, background): “Recent work has highlighted the need to move beyond considering adult leaf and root traits to also assessing seed and seedling traits when considering the role of functional traits in restoration performance (Larson et al. 2015).”
• Regeneration: an overlooked aspect of trait‐based plant community assembly models (2016, background): “Consequently, the composition of germinants in a given year could depend on complex interactions between abiotic factors and germination traits which make it challenging to anticipate relative germination success (e.g. Larson et al. 2015).”
