- W1983311345 abstract "The genus Carex, with its wide distribution and large number of species yet with a rather uniform life history, is a very convenient group for comparative studies of germination ecology at the generic level. The combination of a strict or conditional primary dormancy, a light requirement for germination, low germination at constant temperatures, a positive response to diurnal temperature fluctuations and an induction of secondary dormancy in late spring by increasing environmental temperatures are attributes that were found to be characteristics shared by almost all the Carex species investigated, though there was variation between species in the degree to which these characters were expressed. In almost all species, dormancy was broken by stratification at low temperatures, though few species gained the ability to germinate at temperatures <10 °C. There is evidence that long-term physiological changes and the structure of seed coats can play a decisive role in delaying germination. High dormancy levels were found mainly in Carices with large seeds (>0.9 mg), probably due to a thicker seed coat and hence a higher resistance to germination. Differences in primary dormancy between sedges of various habitats could not be established. However, there was a tendency for temperature limits to be low in forest sedges. Many species of wetlands and open sites showed a greater capability to respond to fluctuating temperatures than species of dry sites. These dormancy and germination traits not only enable the accumulation of seeds in the soil, but also constitute seasonal seed regeneration strategies that rely on the high longevity of seeds and the formation of persistent seed banks. Temperate Carices are mainly adapted to exploit the temporally and spatially infrequent occurrence of canopy gaps that become available only in late spring or early summer, whereas the colonization of gaps at the beginning of the vegetation period is largely prevented by a high temperature requirement for germination. Many of the dormancy and germination characteristics of Carices are important in Cyperaceae generally. A greater diversity of germination responses, however, can be found in the related families, Juncaceae and Poaceae. Our present knowledge is not sufficient to determine unequivocally whether a phylogenetic component contributes significantly to the germination behaviour of the genus Carex, but certain tendencies are clearly indicated." @default.
