Abstract
The importance of seed size and relative emergence time to survivorship and fecundity in natural populations of the woodland annual I. capensis was cord, Massachusetts, USA. Emergence time was important but neither the effect of seed size nor the size .times. emergence time interaction was significant.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
