Recruitment pattern shifts across life stages for offspring of Castanopsis eyrei. (IMAGE)
Caption
The figures are the observed and expected sapling recruitment distribution estimated from the seedling distribution (A) and juvenile recruitment distribution estimated from the sapling distribution (B). These show that the peak recruitment distances of offspring shift away from mother trees over life stages, implying a higher mortality rate for seedlings recruiting near their mother trees.
