Species richness patterns and metapopulation processes – evidence from epiphyte communities in boreo‐nemoral forests (2006, background): “Several studies (Wyatt 1982, McQueen 1986, Miles and Longton 1987, Sö derströ m and Jonsson 1989, Kimmerer 1991, Sundberg 2005) have shown that a large fraction of bryophyte diaspores were deposited within a few meters from the source.”
Species richness of vascular plants, bryophytes and lichens in dry grasslands: The effects of environment, landscape structure and competition (2006, result): “Similarly, several studies (SÖDERSTRÖM & JONSSON 1989, KIMMERER 1991, SUNDBERG 2005) show that a large proportion of bryophyte spores are deposited within a few meters from the source.”
Dispersal potential of spores and asexual propagules in the epixylic hepatic Anastrophyllum hellerianum (2006, methodology): “The stronger distance dependence detected by Sundberg (2005) may be due to the fact that the Sphagnum species have considerably larger spores (about 30 lm) than A. hellerianum (about 10–12 lm).”
