Title: Effects of leaf removal on reproductions vs. belowground storage in Trillium grandiflorum: Journal: Ecology; Authors: A. E. Lubbers, and M. J. Lechowicz; Date: 1989; Summary: The objective of this study was to examine flexibility in allocation to storage and reproduction with respect to loss of leaf area in Trillium grandiflorum, a perennial herb of temperate deciduous forests in eastern North America. Natural pollination limited seed set in one year but not another at the study site near Montreal, Quebec; it is likely that year-to-year variation in pollinator availability is the norm. Removal of leaf or floral bract tissues did not affect mean seed set, but leaf removal did reduce allocation of biomass and nonstructural carbohydrates to rhiz ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Rangelands, Wildlife; View more details about this article
