Can soil seed banks serve as genetic memory? A study of three species with contrasting life history strategies.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

We attempted to confirm that seed banks can be viewed as an important genetic reservoir by testing the hypothesis that standing (aboveground) plants represent a nonrandom sample of the seed bank. We sampled multilocus allozyme genotypes from three species with different life history strategies: Amaranthus retroflexus, Carduus acanthoides, Pastinaca sativa. In four populations of each species we analysed the...
