Seed dormancy of 80 tropical montane forest species in Sri Lanka, the first dormancy profile for a tropical montane forest community

ABSTRACT Community‐level seed dormancy studies are important in understanding the dynamics of plant communities and adaptations of species to their habitat. Our aim was to develop a seed dormancy profile for tropical montane forests of Sri Lanka, which are a global biodiversity hotspot, and compare...
