nurse plant
A nurse plant is a plant that creates an environment that is less severe for young seedlings growing underneath it to survive in a harsh desert environment. The importance of nurse plant associations ranges from providing shade to providing the only means of seedling establishment
El nodricismo consiste en que una planta, generalmente un arbusto, protege a otra durante sus primeras etapas de desarrollo, porque debajo de sus ramas, se dan condiciones más propicias para su supervivencia y crecimiento.
