Autecological studies on Audouinia capitata (Bruniaceae). I. Plant-derived smoke as a seed germination cue

Open access
de Lange, J.H., Boucher, C.·1990·South African Journal of Botany

Abstract

Seeds of Audouinia capitata, a threatened fynbos species, are known to germinate under natural conditions only after fires. Experimental results are presented which demonstrate that seed germination is initiated by chemical factor(s) found in smoke, derived from burning fynbos plant material. Dit is bekend dat sade van Audouinia capitata, ’n bedreigde fynbos spesie, onder natuurlike toestande slegs na vure ontkiem. Eksperimentele resultate word aangebied waarin daar gedemonstreer word dat ontkieming van saad deur chemise faktor(e) aanwesig in rook afkomstig van brandende fynbos plantmateriaal, geïnisieer word.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
