High-intensity sheep grazing impoverishes soil seed banks in sand grasslands

This study finds that high-intensity sheep grazing reduces soil seed bank density and diversity more than cattle grazing in sand grasslands, highlighting the need to avoid high-intensity sheep grazing in conservation management.

Unintentional seed dispersal via container-grown garden plants: Seed density and composition vary among exporter countries

The paper examines seed dispersal via container-grown garden plants, finding varying seed density and composition among exporting countries and plant types.

Inconsistent relationships detected between seed size, shape, and persistence for different plant functional groups in the Pannonian flora

The paper examines how seed mass and shape affect persistence across plant functional groups in the Pannonian flora, finding inconsistent relationships, particularly in graminoids.
