• Effect of light on germination of seeds of Cactaceae from the Chihuahuan Desert, Mexico (2006, methodology): “From these observations we determined final germination percentages (Jurado and Westoby, 1992; Flores and Briones, 2001) and rates of germination, as time (d) required for half of the seed sample to germinate (t50) (Grime et al., 1981; Jurado and Westoby, 1992; Flores and Briones, 2001).”
• Germination, survival, and growth of grass and forb seedlings: Effects of soil moisture variability (2009, background): “Masson SAS. associated with growth form or life history reflect adaptations to environmental variability (Matthews, 1976; Qi and Redmann, 1993; Dubrovsky, 1998; Perez-Fernandez et al., 2000; Flores and Briones, 2001).”
• Seed germination responses of Cereus jamacaru DC. ssp. jamacaru (Cactaceae) to environmental factors. (2010, background): “According to Flores and Briones (2001), the relationship among germination patterns and water availability highlights an important adaptation of species that germinate in arid and semiarid ecosystems, and these species would have an advantage in those environments.”
• Soil water availability effects on seed germination account for species segregation in semiarid roadslopes (2007, unknown): “As it regulates the seed water intake (Evans and Etherington 1990), soil water potential is one of the main factors in addition to temperature that influences seed germination in arid and semiarid environments (Potter et al. 1986; Flores and Briones 2001; Lu et al. 2006).”
• Physiological ecology of seed germination for the columnar cactus Stenocereus queretaroensis (2003, background): “0 MPa (po0?”
• Applications of hydrothermal time to quantifying and modeling seed germination and dormancy (2002, background): “This common set of parameters can be used to characterize the ecological relationships of different species’ germination sensitivities to their environments (Allen et al. 2000; Flores and Briones 2001).”
