The fern spores bank in the soil of Los Tuxtlas, Veracruz
Abstract
The encounter of fern spores in the propagule bank and the preliminary results on their germination under conditions of clearings in the tropical forest and in its shade offer us new possibilities in the study of the regeneration and dynamics of the high evergreen forest, Likewise, they do not indicate that germination regulation mechanisms similar to those mentioned by Vázquez-Yanes and Smith, 1982, for the "seed bank" may be acting on the "spore bank" of ferns.
