FIRE ECOLOGY
SPECIES: Descurainia pinnata | Pinnate Tansymustard
FIRE ECOLOGY OR ADAPTATIONS :
Pinnate tansymustard produces an abundance of seed that readily
germinates on exposed mineral soil. This seed is transported to a
burned site by wind, water, or animals. Some seed is also stored
on-site in desert grassland communities of New Mexico and presumably
elsewhere [15].
POSTFIRE REGENERATION STRATEGY :
Initial-offsite colonizer (off-site, initial community)
Secondary colonizer - off-site seed
