Dr. David Merritt: Research Scientist, Kings Park Botanic Garden, Gardens and Parks Authority, Perth, Western Australia, Australia.
Dr. Merritt has published extensively in the areas of conservation and restoration seed ecology. He was a key player in the discovery and identification of germination-stimulating chemicals in smoke. http://www.bgpa.wa.gov.au/science/staff/david-merritt

Dr.Roberto
Benech-Arnold: Professor of Agronomy, University of
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Dr. Benech-Arnold is well-known for his work on the ecophysiology of weed seeds, particularly the quantification and modelling of environmental factors that regulate dormancy status in the soil seed bank. http://www.ifeva.edu.ar/es/miembros/benech.htm

Dr. Gehan Jayasuriya: Department
of Botany, University of Peradeniya, Peradeniya, Sri Lanka
Dr. Jayasuriya is the author of recent ground-breaking work on the physiological ecology of physical dormancy. His doctoral work was carried out under the tutelage of Jerry and Carol Baskin at the University of Kentucky. http://www.pdn.ac.lk/sci/botany/gehan.html

Dr. Kathleen Donohue: Department
of Biology, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, USA
Dr. Donohue works on the interface between evolutionary genetics and ecology. Her work with seeds includes studies on the sources and ecological consequences of variation in germination timing and dispersal mechanisms. http://fds.duke.edu/db/aas/Biology/kd65

Dr. Peter Kotanen: Department
of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Toronto, Mississauga,
Ontario, Canada
Dr. Kotanen is one of the few people to directly examine impacts of predators and pathogens on seed bank dynamics and to place these studies in a community context.
