Examples of seedling

• Therefore, the average age of newly recruited seedlings varies from 6-10 mo among sites.

• Many saplings survived the attack, whereas most seedlings had died already.

• There was a significant effect of site on the proportion of surviving seedlings and on the relative growth rates in terms of leaf number.

• None of these seedlings has as yet suffered mortality.

• Large-sized pioneer species dominating early successional stands suffered greater damage and mortality, but these same species were observed as seedlings in newly formed canopy gaps.

• Do dipterocarp seedlings really partition tropical rain forest gaps?

• Seedling survival of tropical tree species: interactions of dispersal distance, light-gaps, and pathogens.

• Effects of dispersers, gaps, and predators on dormancy and seedling emergence in a tropical herb.
