Short-term abandonment of human disturbances in Zagros Oak forest ecosystems: Effects on secondary succession of soil seed bank and aboveground vegetation

Abstract: Heydari M, Pothier D, Faramarzi M, Merzaei J. 2014. Short-term abandonment of human disturbances in Zagros Oak forest ecosystems: Effects on secondary succession of soil seed . Zagros Oak forests in the west of Iran have been degraded by anthropogenic activities during many years and to fight against this degradation, several management strategies have been implemented. The principal objectives this study were to identify the characteristics of the soil seed bank and the aboveground vegetation that were affect… Show more

“…For natural regeneration to occur, there must be a supply of viable plant propagules (do Nascimento Oliveira et al 2019) as well as suitable conditions for their germination and establishment (Shumi et al 2018; Ligate et al 2019). In addition to those that already occur in situ (e.g., in soils, surface leaf litter or the canopy of remnant vegetation; Heydari et al 2014; Sandor & Chazdon 2014), plant propagules can also arrive at a site via a range of dispersal vectors, including wind, hydrochory (Nilsson et al 1991), zoochory (Dylewski et al 2017; Catterall 2018), or anemochory (Sandor & Chazdon 2014). Propagules may then germinate or be stored within soil seed banks (Jensen et al 2008) or leaf litter (Capon et al 2017).…”
