Only 2.6% of the seedlings were dicot herbs; while no vines, small trees/shrubs or trees germinated.
Using the year total pollinators as an example (fig. 4), numbers were positively related to dicots, with no effect of herbicide management.
Nonetheless, the clear differences between most dicot seeds and the cereals are consistent between the two methods.
The reference forest soils and the pre-burn soils each produced 30 dicot species.
Ten per cent of the dicot seedlings from the reference forest died before they could be identified.
Unidentified species (monocot and dicot classes comprising 13.5% of the emerged seeds) were excluded from the analyses.
Thus, in both monocot and dicot seeds, loss of dormancy was associated with a reduction in the threshold oxygen percentage.
Therefore, monocots are better able to deal with the typical water stressed habitat of the lowland canopy than dicots.
