In degraded grasslands, luxuriant growth and rapid expansion of poisonous plants threaten
livestock safety and reduce forage quality. Most of the poisonous plants propagate through …

Soil seed bank (SSB) characteristics may vary with habitat heterogeneity. We investigated
the SSB density in three microhabitats (under canopy, eroded soil and bare soil) in five …

Alien plant invasions are a major ecological and management problem facing many parts of
southern Africa. Invasive plants spread rapidly, negatively impacting native flora and fauna …

Savanna ecosystems contain multiple invasive woody plant species yet most ecological
studies focus largely on single invader species. This study investigated the combined and …

Invasive alien species (IAS) are one amongst the dominant drivers of global environmental
change. The reported effects of IAS on biodiversity and ecosystems are often highly variable …

The study was conducted in a portion of tropical montane forest in the Caparaó National
Park, Brazil. The aim of this work was to assess the changes in seed bank composition …

Lantana camara is an invasive plant in South Africa with a wide range of impacts. This study
assessed the impact of L. camara invasion on the soil seed bank. The study asked the …

Calcareous lands play an important role in the gene reservoir persistence through soil seed
bank (SSB). This research was carried out to assess soil seed bank dynamics (SSBDs) in a …

Soil seed bank is an important reservoir for restoration of degraded rangeland ecosystems.
The study was conducted to assess the ability of soil seed bank to restore the aboveground …

The combined impact of biocontrol agents on the seed regenerative capacity, ie seed
production, seed-rain, soil seedbank, seed germination and seedling density, of Lantana …
