Maternal Environmental Light Conditions Affect the Morphological Allometry and Dispersal Potential of <i>Acer palmatum</i> Samaras

Maternal Environmental Light Conditions Affect the Morphological Allometry and Dispersal Potential of <i>Acer palmatum</i> Samaras

Seed dispersal plays critical roles in determining species survival and community structures. Since the dispersal is biologically under maternal control, it is hypothesized that intraspecific variation of dispersal potential and associated traits of seeds (diaspores) should be influenced by maternal...
