Yo he tenido la oportunidad de presentar mi último trabajo sobre el contenido de aceite de las semillas recientemente publicado en Plant Biology

The study was funded by @ageinves.bsky.social framed within the SEEDALP project and by the Atlantic Botanic Garden of Xixón. (5/5)

Our results revealed a significant trade-off between seed oil content and seed longevity, which may aid in understanding species regeneration in alpine soils and inform precise protocols for ex-situ seed conservation. (4/5)

In the studied species, seed oil content ranged from 1% to 34% and exhibited strong phylogenetic constraints, which likely prevent selective responses of alpine species across altitudinal and microclimatic gradients. (3/5)

Focusing on seed oil content and composition (ratio of Unsaturated and Saturated Fatty Acids), we tested three potential trade-offs between oil content and seed mass, seed longevity and germination timing, revealing a significant trade-off between seed oil and seed longevity. (2/5)

Hi Shyam, could you please add me? Very interested in building a seed scientific community
