Colonization by woody plants is often very slow or absent on grasslands occupying degraded land in the tropics. Seed dispersal limitation is widely re...

Grassland restorations often lack rare forb and grass species that are found in intact grasslands. The possible reasons for low diversity include seed...

Globally, soil water repellency is a major constraint to plant establishment, restricting water infiltration and moisture retention in the seed zone w...

Seed-based ecosystem restoration has huge potential to restore degraded drylands. However, fewer than 10% of directly sown seeds transition to establi...

Quantification of fitness differences between herbicide-resistant and herbicide-susceptible weeds permits better prediction of herbicide resistance, a...

Restoration in rangelands is constrained by low establishment of species sown from seed. Non-biotic soil-surface crust is one of the major factors lim...

Seeding is an important management tool in aridland restoration, but seeded species often fail to establish. Previous research has largely focused on ...

Seeds of calabrese, carrot, onion and sugar beet were sown in the field on successive occasions. Soil integral impedance (work done in penetrating the...

Poor seedling emergence often limits the success of direct seeding in ecological restoration. New techniques for maximising seed use efficiency and se...

Seeding native plants is a key management practice to counter land degradation across the globe, yet the majority of seeding efforts fail, limiting ou...
