Hypothesized distribution of the belowground persistence types along a gradient of disturbance return time with hump-shaped (first increasing and then decreasing) investment in resprouting (highlighted by intensity of shading). The disturbance return time ranges from less than a year to many decades. source: original paper
🌱 New framework in plant ecology! Researchers propose 6 Belowground Persistence Types (BPTs) — classifying plants by woodiness, clonality, and resprouting ability. This whole-plant view reveals how species persist after disturbance and could reshape how we study resilience.

Bulbostylis paradoxa flowering 24 hs afrer fire
18 and 24 hs after fire!
Cuphea spermacoce
Turnera incana
The Cerrado is really amazing! Post-fire flowering is one of the most interesting and beautiful fire response! It is not a response of a specific species or family! Bulbostylis paradoxa never fails and can be seen flowering already 18 hs after fire! @leveg.bsky.social @programabiota.bsky.social
