Long-term response of spring flora to chronic herbivory and deer exclusion in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA (2005, background): “Most studies of deer impacts on forest plant communities have focused on woody species (Harlow and Downing, 1970; Frelich and Lorimer, 1985; Rooney et al., 2000; Opperman and Merenlender, 2000), mid-summer Xowering guilds (Rooney and Dress, 1997; Webster and Parker, 1997), individual species (August”

Riparian Forest Restoration: Increasing Success by Reducing Plant Competition and Herbivory (2002, background): “…areas, reestablishing natural forests can be a slow and difficult process, particularly in landscapes where competition with foreign invasive plants and mammalian herbivores produces high seedling mortality rates (Marquis 1977; Marquis & Brenneman 1981; Davies 1987; Opperman & Merenlender 2000).”
