Germination responses to changing rainfall timing reveal potential climate vulnerability in a clade of wildflowers

S. J. Worthy, A. Miller, S. R. Ashlock, E. Ceviker, J. N. Maloof, S. Y. Strauss, J. Schmitt, J. R. Gremer

This study examines how changes in rainfall timing affect germination in 11 wildflower species, finding that later rains and cooler temperatures reduce germination rates and fractions, with phylogenetic constraints and climate change impacts observed.
