Community-wide germination strategies in an alpine meadow on the eastern Qinghai-Tibet plateau: phylogenetic and life-history correlates (2008, background): “That ensured higher survival of the seedlings by fast germination (Gutterman 2000).”
Effects of seed maturation time and dry storage on light and temperature requirements during germination in invasive Prosopis juliflora (2006, background): “It has been reported that dry storage increased germination of stored over that of fresh seeds in many species, including Spergularia diandra (Gutterman, 2000), Portulaca oleracea (El-Keblawy and Al-Ansari, 2000), Lonicera spp.”
DIFFERENCES IN SEED BIOLOGY OF ANNUAL PLANTS IN ARID LANDS: A KEY INGREDIENT OF THE STORAGE EFFECT (2005, background): “Several studies report on the ecophysiology of germination of desert annual plants (Elberse and Breman 1989, 1990, Briede and McKell 1992, Gutterman 2000).”
Incidence and ecology of very fast germination (2012, background): “between Salsola tragus and other alien annuals in the Great Basin, USA (Young and Evans, 1972); and (2) that, because ants are said to collect seeds but not seedlings, rapid transition from seeds to seedlings allows escape from ant predation (Gutterman, 2000).”
