“…Fire-adapted plant populations persist due to individuals' resprout capacity (sprouting species), abundant seed production, and soil seed bank formation, and their germination can increase when post-fire-mediated dormant seeds break (Daibes et al, 2019;Keeley & Zedler, 1978;Ooi, Denham, Santana, & Auld, 2014;Pausas & Keeley, 2014). Sprouting and non-sprouting Fabaceae species show different post-fire regeneration strategies, but in the Cerrado open savannas resprouting is the most common strategy (Daibes et al, 2019;Santana et al, 2010;Schutte, Vlok, & Van Wyk, 1995;Venier, Cabido, & Funes, 2017;Zupo, Daibes, Pausas, & Fidelis, 2021). In spite of this, fire effects on seed germination in Fabaceae are not related to the regeneration form of the species (Herranz, Ferrandis, & Martínez-S anchez, 1998).…”
