Timing of fire relative to seed development may enable non-serotinous species to recolonize from the aerial seed banks of fire-killed trees
The existence of non-serotinous, non-sprouting species in fire regimes where serotiny confers an adaptive advantage is puzzling, particularly when these species recruit poorly from soil seed banks or from burn edges. In this paper, white spruce (<i>Picea glauca</i> (Moench) Voss) was use...
