Many sedge species (Carex L.[Cyperaceae]) are found in varied vegetation communities
that make up the boreal forest in northwest Alberta, Canada. Sedges make up a large part of …

The germination responses of 32 temperate Carex species were tested in light and darkness
at five constant temperatures and under one fluctuating temperature regime, before and after …

This report presents the results of a four-year study on techniques for revegetation of native
sedges in created basins. Although often the dominant genus in shallow wetlands, sedges …

The seed germination behaviour of six cold-temperate, cespitose Carex species occurring
either in wet forests or wet, open habitats was investigated under different light and …

Effects of diurnal temperature fluctuations on the germination of 34 temperate Carex-species
were investigated. Experiments were conducted on recently matured seeds at 22° C mean …

Direct sowing is an underutilized technique for establishing native species on reclaimed
land in the mineable oil sands region of northeastern Alberta. This study evaluated the effect …

Successful restoration of sedge meadow wetlands is limited by lack of information on the
establishment requirements of sedges (Carex). The significant loss of native sedge …

Great Basin native plant communities are being replaced by the annual invasive cheatgrass
Bromus tectorum. Cheatgrass exhibits a germination syndrome that is characteristic of …

Successful restoration of sedge meadow wetlands is limited by lack of information regarding
reintroduction of sedge (Carex) propagules. While restoration from seed is common for …

Annual clovers are very popular fodder crop species in the Mediterranean basin, however
poor and slow seed germination, due to unfavourable temperatures, can cause somewhat …
