From: Is the post-disturbance composition of a plant population determined by selection for outcrossed seedlings or by the composition of the seedbank?

Figure 1

Plot depicting the distribution of the average FIS based on n=1000 simulated data sets consisting of random samples of seedlings, from the seedlings that had emerged following fire-stimulated germination in 2001, and equal in size to the observed number of seedlings surviving to 2009 (lower stand) (n=20) and 2012 (upper stand) (n=35), respectively. The crosses are the mean values of FIS, whereas the error bars depict the 95% CIs. The open black circles represent the values of FIS for the initial 2001 post-fire seedlings, whereas the black stars show FIS for the individuals surviving to the final sampling time (2009 and 2012 in the lower and upper stand, respectively). An insufficient number of survivors precluded analysis of the lower stand in 2012.
