Can alpine plant species “bank” on conservation?: Using artificial aging to understand seed longevity
Abstract Premise To conserve native plants, many institutions are turning toward ex‐situ conservation methods, such as storage in seed banks; however, not all seeds are able to survive in seed bank conditions, or may not in the long term. Experimental aging has shown that alpine species lose viabili...
