“…The intrinsic property of seed size includes elements of life history and influences of the previous generation. The effects of maternal environment can be large and may have important ecological and evolutionary consequences (Roach and Wulff, 1987;Schmitt et al, 1992). Indeed, a recent study showed a heavy maternal condition influence on seed size affected seedling development and even aspects of adult plant development (T.L.…”

“…All experiments described here were performed in a controlled environment, which makes extrapolation to a natural situation difficult. For instance, inbreeding depression is often more severe in natural environments (Dudash 1990; Barett and Kohn t991) and maternal plants can also perform significantly different under different circumstances (Schmitt et al 1992). Additional field experiments are therefore needed (and conducted at present) to conclude anything about the consequences of the observed results for demography.…”

“…Our experimental design reduces both R:FR and irradiance, as in natural vegetative canopies. Total irradiance under the canopy was lower than under white light, and low irradiance during seed maturation has been shown to increase germination in other species (Schmitt et al, 1992;Galloway, 2001). Further, reduced irradiance combined with a short photoperiod may have simulated autumn conditions, in which case the increased germination of seeds matured under a canopy could be related to seasonal cueing.…”
