The ecology and agronomy of Miscanthus sinensis, a species important to bioenergy crop development, in its native range in Japan: a review (2009, background): “Indeed, Bellamy et al. (2009) and Semere & Slater (2007) concluded that a consequent lack of weed seeds in closed stands of M. giganteus would lead to reduction in bird species diversity.”
Renewable energy and biodiversity: Implications for transitioning to a Green Economy (2017, background): “miscanthus, switchgrass) can provide habitat to a number of species [221,222].”
The impact of growing miscanthus for biomass on farmland bird populations (2009, unknown): “[6] Semere T, Slater FM.”
Biological consequences of invasion by reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) (2009, background): “Therefore, while our hypothesis of decreased overall mammal abundance and diversity with increasing RCG was not supported, the observed differences in relative mammal abundances were likely attributable to differences in cover type, and/or food resources between plots dominated by RCG versus other h”
