Background Below-ground bud banks have experienced much recent interest due to
discoveries that they (1) account for the majority of seasonal population renewal in many …

In fire-prone ecosystems, plant resilience to recurrent fires depends on certain fire-adaptive
traits. However, how key functional and reproductive traits of graminoids respond to varying …

The response of compensatory growth is an important adaptive strategy for plants to grazing.
However, most previous studies on compensatory growth of plants focused on the …

Many prior studies have uncovered evidence for local adaptation using reciprocal transplant
experiments. However, these studies are rarely conducted for a long enough time to observe …

Abstract Background and Aims Understanding the changes in below-ground bud bank
density and composition along a climatic gradient is essential for the exploration of species …

Exploring the role of belowground bud bank in plant adaptive strategies is essential for
understanding the processes of vegetation regeneration under conditions of environmental …

Fire and herbivory are major drivers in tropical savanna ecosystems and they selected a
flora composed of species able to cope with recurrent aboveground biomass removal …

Based on niche theory, recruitment limitation is to discuss population regeneration through
the population demographic characteristics in different life stages, such as seed …

C4 grasses coevolved with fires, employing specialized adaptive traits to recover from
recurrent fires of varying regimes, thereby maintaining plant diversity and plant population …

Sexual reproduction, growth, and survival are crucial demographic strategies for plant
population viability. Here, we propose a conceptual model predicting demographic …
