Facilitation by nurse plants regulates community invasibility in harsh environments
(International Association for Vegetation Science, 2015)
QuestionThe biotic resistance hypothesis states that species diversity is a barrier for plant biological invasions because alien species are more likely to find strong competitors as diversity of native plants increases. ...
Large mammalian herbivores modulate plant growth form diversity in a tropical rainforest
(2022-01-01)
The world’s terrestrial biomes are broadly classified according to the dominant plant growth forms that define ecosystem structure and processes. Although the abundance and distribution of different plant growth forms can ...

Maintenance of wetland plant communities: the role of the seed bank in regeneration of native plants
(Sociedade Botânica do Brasil, 2021-07-05)
Exotic grasses have been introduced into wetlands and can compete with native plants due to their high tolerance of flood and dry periods. Flooding can facilitate seed dispersal of exotic species and reduce the diversity ...
sPlot – A new tool for global vegetation analyses
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2019)
Aims: Vegetation-plot records provide information on the presence and cover or abundance of plants co-occurring in the same community. Vegetation-plot data are spread across research groups, environmental agencies and ...
Genetic diversity among plants of non-transgenic and transgenic versions of a single cross maize hybrid
(Elsevier Science, 2015-05)
Previous studies have documented that transgene introduction may alter the phenotypic expression of several traits (e.g., biomass production, grain yield). We hypothesized that genetic diversity could influence the phenotypic ...
Ecosystem engineers on plants: indirect facilitation of arthropod communities by leaf-rollers at different scales
(Ecological Soc AmerWashingtonEUA, 2013)
Vive la différence: Plant functional diversity matters to ecosystem processes
(Elsevier Science London, 2001)
The role of frugivory in plant diversity maintenance - a simulation approach
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-01)
Frugivores may play a key role in plant species coexistence by equalizing the species’ representation in the seed rain. Rare species may benefit from enhanced dispersal if frugivores prefer locally scarce fruits, or if ...
