Title | Tools for Carex Revegetation in Prairie Pothole Wetlands: Understanding Dormancy Loss and Germination Temperature Requirements |
Creator | Kettenring, Karin M. Galatowitsch, Susan M. |
Description | Carex is a globally distributed genus with more than 2000 species worldwide and Carex species are the characteristic vegetation of sedge meadow wetlands. In the mid-continental United States, Carex species are dominant in natural freshwater wetlands yet are slow to recolonize hydrologically restored wetlands. To aid in Carex revegetation efforts, we determined the dormancy breaking and temperature germination requirements of 12 Carex species. Seeds were cold stratified at 5/1°C for 0–6 months... |
