Species-specific smoke effects on seed germination of plants from different habitats from Sri Lanka

Smoke and in particular karrikinolide (KAR1), a growth promoting compound found in smoke, have been shown to enhance seed germination in phylogenetically diverse plant families from both fire-prone and fire-free ecosystems. We tested the effects of water saturated with smoke, “smoke water” (SW), and...
