Fire frequency effects on cleistogamy expression and progeny performance inCologania broussonetii

Abstract: Increased fire frequency usually erodes microenvironmental conditions, causing a drastic limitation of edaphic resources. Thus, the production of permanently closed‐small flowers (cleistogamous, CL) should increase in sites with high fire frequency as this implies a less expensive reproductive assurance strategy. However, because open, insect‐pollinated flowers (chasmogamous, CH) have the potential capacity to outcross via pollinators, CH progeny produced at any site should outperform selfed CL progeny. We eva… Show more

“…The changes in the hierarchical partitioning of genetic variation are therefore consistent with an increased post-fire contribution by seeds that dispersed only short distances, a characteristic of below-ground CL flowers. An association between fire and increased production of seed from CL flowers was also found in a recent study of Cologania broussonetii , a perennial re-sprouting herb with both CH and CL flowers, that found that expression of CL flowers was maximized under frequent fires ( Carbone et al 2021 ).…”

“…Además de los aspectos vinculados a la tolerancia térmica de los propágulos, el fuego como fenómeno físico introduce cambios en factores abióticos y bióticos que pueden afectar el reclutamiento de las plantas en áreas quemadas, debido a la combustión y carbonización de la biomasa del mantillo y a pérdidas por depredación (Pausas y Keeley, 2019;Ocampo-Zuleta y Bravo, 2019;Carbone et al, 2021). La falta de germinación en cuatro de las seis especies estudiadas en las parcelas control sugiere que, además de disturbios como el rolado y el fuego, existen limitantes ambientales para el reclutamiento (Macedo et al, 2021).…”
