Brochure on the conditions for the awakening of dormancy in bio-indicator plants | Gérard Ducerf

Through "breaking dormancy," plants indicate to us the nature of the soil, the climatic conditions, and the agricultural or human practices that have allowed the germination of their seeds. These seeds are present everywhere in the soil, and only specific environmental conditions will allow a particular species to manifest. This work provides a synthesis of the conditions for the "breaking of dormancy" of the main "Bio-indicator Plants" encountered in agriculture. The different criteria are listed in the form of a synthetic table for quick reference. Individuals wishing to understand and analyze the life of their soils, improve their agricultural practices, will find here the initial information necessary for soil diagnosis. This booklet is an essential complement to the "[[Encyclopedia of bio-indicator plants|LINK:https://athenaeum.com/recherche/?q=Encyclopedia of bio-indicator plants&f_shipping_delay=1]". 44-page booklet in A4 format, a soil diagnostic tool and an essential complement to the encyclopedia of bio-indicator plants. All the species from the encyclopedia and many others are presented in new multi-criteria tables for practical and concrete use. Revised and expanded new version in July 2015
