Although tropical deciduous forest (TDF) is the most widespread tropical forest in Mexico, knowledge on its regeneration
and restoration ecology is still scarce. Here, we compare the diversity of TDF trees and shrubs having published
propagation protocols with the total…

Knowledge of the population dynamics of tropical trees has expanded considerably in the past 20 years. An important observation deriving from these investigations is the confirmation that population behaviour varies both in time and space. A tool recently developed to…
