The sign and magnitude of tree–grass interaction along a global environmental gradient
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-12)
Aim: The ecological literature posits that positive interactions are preponderant in stressful environments; however, the net balance between positive and negative interactions at the community level is still under debate. ...
Grass competition surpasses the effect of defoliation on a woody plant invader
(Elsevier Masson, 2015-10)
Woody encroachment in grasslands represents a global phenomenon with strong consequences on ecosystem functioning. While the causes triggering this process can be multiple, there is consensus on the fact that anthropogenic ...
Tree-grass interactions for N in Nothofagus antarctica silvopastoral systems: evidence of facilitation from trees to underneath grasses
(Springer, 2014-06)
Nothofagus antarctica forests in south Patagonia are usually used as silvopastoral systems but how grasses and trees compete for specific resources, such as nitrogen in these systems is unknown. To understand interactions ...

Weed control, large seeds and deep roots: Drivers of success in direct seeding for savanna restoration
(2020-07-01)
Aim: We aimed to evaluate the performance of native tree species in the restoration of savanna vegetation by direct seeding, to assess whether weed control and intercropping with native grasses can contribute to the success ...
Root and shoot interactions in a tropical integrated crop–livestock–forest system
(2020-05-01)
Integrated crop–livestock–forest systems (ICLFS) have potential advantages compared to monoculture, but most studies quantifying plant biomass in integrated production systems, have quantified only the aboveground component ...
Tree invasion in secondary grasslands diminishes herbaceous biomass and diversity: A study of mechanisms behind the process
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-09)
Questions: How is plant biomass, composition and diversity in secondary grasslands affected by tree invasion? How do light conditions generated by invasive trees and soil legacy affect grassland's structure and functioning? ...
Differences between root traits of early- and late-successional trees influence below-ground competition and seedling establishment.
