“…Some species of this genus, for example, have shown considerable capacity in tolerating water deficit conditions for the germination and the initial phases of seedling establishment (McLaren and McDonald, 2003;Inocente and Barbedo, 2019), as well as for tolerating flooded conditions (Calvi et al, 2017b). In addition, these seeds can germinate and produce new plants even when a large part of their reserve tissue is lost, for example, through predation (Teixeira and Barbedo, 2012;Alonso et al, 2019;Alonso and Barbedo, 2020;Delgado and Barbedo, 2020).…”
