Are seedlings from small seeds always inferior to seedlings from large seeds? Effects of seed biomass on seedling growth in Pastinaca sativa L

Previous field studies of recruitment in Pastinaca sativa L. indicate that more seedlings from small seeds than from large seeds survive short-term droughts. To explore this phenomenon, the effects of variation in seed biomass in Pastinaca sativa on embryo size and seedling characteristics 10, 20, 3...
