Land use impact on Vitellaria paradoxa C.F. Gaerten. stand structure and distribution patterns: a comparison of Biosphere Reserve of Pendjari in Atacora district in Benin (2008, background): “This may be related to seed dispersal where seeds are dispersed for short distances away from the parent tree and thus rapidly decrease in density with increasing distance to the source (Harper 1977; Howe and Smallwood 1982; Willson 1993 in Nathan and Casagrandi 2004).”
Birds and ants provide complementary seed dispersal in a neotropical savanna (2010, unknown): “The importance of the recognition of the scale at which seed dispersal and granivory operate was emphasized by models and simulations by Nathan & Casagrandi (2004), who demonstrated that variation in these two parameters may be enough to explain several spatial patterns of plant recruitment.”
Hierarchical patterns of symbiotic orchid germination linked to adult proximity and environmental gradients (2007, background): “The majority of studies linking recruitment to biotic factors fall within the context of testing for negative distance or density-dependence, often in the context of the Janzen‐ Connell hypothesis (Janzen 1970; Connell 1971; Nathan & Casagrandi 2004 ), but much less is known about how mutualisms ma”
Facilitation of Quercus ilex recruitment by shrubs in Mediterranean open woodlands (2008, background): “…these differential effects of shrubs on oak recruitment may depend on the distance from the parent tree, as both seed and seedling survival may be affected by distance-dependent (post dispersal) seed predation, pathogen attacks and seedling herbivory (Janzen 1970; Nathan & Casagrandi 2005).”
Costs of dispersal (2012, background): “While these costs are in principle levied at any distance from the maternal habitat or mother plant, seed and seedling mortality are suggested to decrease with increasing distance from the parent due to fewer natural enemies [Janzen-Connell effect (Nathan & Casagrandi, 2004)].”
Spatial concordance between seed rain and seedling establishment in bird‐dispersed trees: does scale matter? (2005, unknown): “1984; see reviews in Houle 1995; Nathan & Casagrandi 2004) and others describing recruitment in relation to habitat patchiness (e.g. Jordano & Herrera 1995; Schupp 1995; Schupp & Fuentes 1995) have been used to show that the relationship between seed rain and recruitment depends both on the degree…”
Islands of fertility induce co-occurring negative and positive plant-soil feedbacks promoting coexistence (2008, background): “3) indicates a strong inhibition of both seed germination and seedling emergence (Nathan and Casagrandi 2004).”
