Question
4. Your favorite monoecious plant species is an annual that
exhibits seed dormancy. Adults produce seeds at a rate F.
Seeds produced by adult germinate the following growing
season at a rate g, and do not germinate (i.e., remain in the
seedbank) at a rate 1-g. All seeds that do not germinate the
first growing season following their production enter the
seed bank. Seeds stay in the seed bank at a rate s, and they
germinate from the seed bank at a rate 1-s. Assuming a pre-
breeding census, draw a census timing diagram and a
matrix model for this species, and explain your matrix
model in words so that we can understand what each matrix
element represents.
