Plant functional composition affects soil processes in novel successional grasslands
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-09)
Secondary succession may lead to novel, exotic-dominated community states differing in structure and function from the original native counterparts. We hypothesized that grassland soil processes associated with C and N ...
Resistance to Centaurea solstitialis invasion from annual and perennial grasses in California and Argentina
(Springer, 2011-10)
A common explanation for Centaurea solstitialis invasion in California is that it occupies an "empty niche" created by the replacement of native perennial grasses by exotic annual grasses and concomitant increases in soil ...
Plant functional types in Brazilian savannas: The niche partitioning between herbaceous and woody species
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer VerlagJenaAlemanha, 2011)
The enhancement of invasion ability of an annual grass by its fungal endophyte depends on recipient community structure
(Springer, 2016-07)
Most terrestrial plants establish symbiotic associations with microorganisms that enable them to overcome abiotic or biotic filters in ecosystems. Here we investigated how aerial mutualisms involving invasive species may ...
Functional group dominance and identity effects influence the magnitude of grassland invasion
(Wiley Online Library, 2013)
Effects of fire and water availability on the emergence and recruitment of grasses, forbs and woody species in a semiarid Chaco savanna
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-06)
In the semiarid Chaco savannas, the balance between herbaceous and woody species affects landscape configuration and ecosystem services such as forage production. Therefore, understanding the factors that control this ...
Functional group dominance and identity effects influence the magnitude of grassland invasion
(Wiley, 2013-09)
Variation in functional community composition is expected to influence the extent of exotic species invasions. Yet, whether resident functional groups control invasion through their relative biomass (mass ratio hypothesis) ...
Grass seed production in the central Monte desert during successive wet and dry years
(Springer, 2010-05)
In desert regions, water availability triggers primary production, which determines seed production, the composition and size of soil seed reserves and the abundance and behaviour of seed-eating animals. In the central ...
