Effect of Temperature on Breaking of Morphophysiological Dormancy and Seed Germination Leading to Bulblet Production in Two Endemic Tulip Species from Greece.

Due to botanical tulips' economic interest coupled with limited information regarding their seed germination, we investigated the effect of temperature on dormancy release and germination in two endangered local endemic tulip species of Greece ( Heldr., Heldr.).

Influence of Temperature on Seed Germination of Five Wild-Growing Tulipa Species of Greece Associated with Their Ecological Profiles: Implications for Conservation and Cultivation.

Although tulips are famous worldwide as ornamental plants, the knowledge about the seed germination of wild-growing species remains limited. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of temperature on seed germination of the local, wild-growing Greek endemics and and the sub-Balkan endemic , which are threatened with extinction, as well as the Mediterranean and the Asiatic naturalized on Chios Island (Greece). The germination responses at five constant temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 °C) were assessed for all studied species in growth chambers under a 12:12 light-dark photoperiod.

Within-forest stand (or formation, or plot) and between-forest stand (or formation, or plot) biodiversity indices.

The idea of entropy, which has its roots in information theory and proposes that one may measure the degree of uncertainty associated with the prediction of bits and pieces of information, has been widely used by biologists and ecologists for decades to define biological diversity. For ecologists, the core of the issue is whether or not two species' distribution taken from the same habitat are the same or distinct. The Shannon index and Simpson diversity are well-known in ecology; however, the non-linearity of these indices may cause a misinterpretation of the underlying diversity, as shown by Lou Jost (2006) and others.

GIS-Facilitated Seed Germination and Multifaceted Evaluation of the Endangered Trab. (Pinaceae) Enabling Conservation and Sustainable Exploitation.

In the frame of the sustainable use of neglected and underutilized phytogenetic resources, and along with numerous studies in spp. due to the innate conservation value of fir forests, this research focused on the Moroccan endemic fir, The aim was triple-fold: to assess its potential and dynamics in economic sectors for sustainable exploitation; to determine the ecological conditions in which the species naturally thrives; and to find the appropriate requirements for its successful seed germination. We sourced multifaceted evaluations for three economic sectors performed in three levels, using 48 attributes and eight criteria from previous studies of our own, and the relevant species-specific assessments are overviewed herein in detail.

EFFECTS OF COLD STRATIFICATION AND GA3 ON GERMINATION OF SEEDS OF THREE PROVENANCES.

Background: is a valuable Mediterranean shrub as an ornamental plant as well as fruit tree. Fresh fruits of are a good source of antioxidants, of vitamins C, E and carotenoids and also are characterized by the high content of mineral elements.

Materials And Methods: The effects of gibberellic acid (GA) and cold stratification (CS) on seed germination performance were investigated in seeds collected from three provenances in the Northern part of Greece.
