第四届国际种子生态学大会会议论文（英文版）

The 4th International Society for Seed Science Meeting on Seeds and the Environment was a significant event for scientists in the field of seed ecology. This book, which compiles the extended abstracts from the meeting, is an essential read for anyone interested in this subject. The abstracts cover topics such as the impact of temperature and salinity on seed germination, seed dispersal and germination traits of plant species, seed bank, seed longevity and storage, and seed ecology and biodiversity conservation.The book provides valuable insights into the interactions between seeds and their environment, and how these interactions affect various aspects of seed ecology. For example, some abstracts explore the role of seed size in the life cycle of desert annual plants, while others investigate the influence of fire-related cues on seed germination response. The abstracts also highlight the importance of seeds in conservation efforts, as with the seed bank research presented.The extended abstracts are well-written and informative, making the book easily accessible to both experts and non-experts in the field. The research presented here has profound implications for environmental conservation and agriculture, making it a highly recommended read.
