Mechanisms of mast seeding: resources, weather, cues, and selection
Mast seeding is a widespread and widely studied phenomenon. However, the physiological
mechanisms that mediate masting events and link them to weather and plant resources are …

How will global change affect plant reproduction? A framework for mast seeding trends
M Bogdziewicz - New Phytologist, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Forest ecology traditionally focuses on plant growth and survival, leaving seed production as
a major demographic process lacking a framework for how it will be affected by global …

Mechanisms driving interspecific variation in regional synchrony of trees reproduction
Seed production in many plants is characterized by large interannual variation, which is
synchronized at subcontinental scales in some species but local in others. The reproductive …

Inter-annual variation in seed production has increased over time (1900–2014)
Mast seeding, or masting, is the highly variable and spatially synchronous production of
seeds by a population of plants. The production of variable seed crops is typically correlated …
