Do water regime and season influence plant reproduction?
Reproduction of species is influenced by both season and water regime (Figure 15, Attachments i, j). Results show: • Autumn is the season in which most species reproduce in all water regimes (Figure 15b). • 60% of species recorded in each water regime were reproductive in autumn 1999, and autumn 2000, 18 and 30 months after the wetlands were planted with seed bank material and water regimes were imposed (Figure 15a,b).
