Experimental evaluation of seed limitation in alpine snowbed plants.
BACKGROUND: The distribution and abundance of plants is controlled by the availability of seeds and of sites suitable for establishment. The relative importance of these two constraints is still contentious and possibly varies among species and ecosystems. In alpine landscapes, the role of seed limi...
