• Dispersal and establishment both limit colonization during primary succession on a glacier foreland (2009, background): “Selective seed predation can lead to large changes in community composition (Howe and Brown 2000; Maron and Simms 2001).”
• Low Recruitment of Trees Dispersed by Animals in African Forest Fragments (2001, background): “A large literature shows that vertebrate herbivory alters the composition of plant communities (Howe & Brown 1999, 2000, and references therein), and a smaller number of studies show that mutualists, such as ant dispersers (Horvitz & Schemske 1995), alter the population structure of Neotropical…”
• The ghost of granivory past (2001, methodology): “M E T H O D S The experiment was planted as a surfacè`frost seeding'' (following Rock 1981) on sandy loam from 17 to 19 October 1997 near Viola, Vernon County, Wisconsin (details are in Howe & Brown 2000; also Howe 1995, 1999b).”
• A rodent plague on prairie diversity (2002, background): “Reduction in numbers by voles of otherwise common plant species by up to 89% leaves room for subdominant species (Howe & Brown 1999, 2000, 2001; see Cornell & Lawton 1992).”
• Seed size and provenance mediate the joint effects of disturbance and seed predation on community assembly (2012, background): “…& Maron 2006; Maron & Kauffman 2006; Bricker, Pearson & Maron 2010; Zwolak et al. 2010; Pearson, Callaway & Maron 2011) with the potential to alter community composition (Brown & Heske 1990; Curtin et al. 1999; Howe & Brown 2000), although community-level studies are still surprisingly rare.”
• SPATIAL ECOLOGY OF PREDATOR–PREY INTERACTIONS: CORRIDORS AND PATCH SHAPE INFLUENCE SEED PREDATION (2003, background): “Seed predation can lead to dramatic re- ductions in the standing crop of seeds and may be the primary determinant of plant distribution in some systems (e.g., Louda 1989, Brown and Heske 1990, Hulme 1998, Howe and Brown 1999, 2000, 2001).”
• Seed predation, not seed dispersal, explains the landscape‐level abundance of an early‐successional plant (2006, background): “An important point is that predators often exhibit preferences for particular species, and the activities of predators can lead to changes in plant communities (Brown & Heske 1990; Howe & Brown 2000, 2001).”
• When do herbivores affect plant invasion? Evidence for the natural enemies and biotic resistance hypotheses (2001, background): “For example, in grassland and dune systems, intense mouse granivory on large-seeded plants can dramatically reduce the abundance of these species (Davidson et al. 1984, Brown et al. 1986, Brown and Heske 1990, Hulme 1996, Howe and Brown 2000, Maron and Simms 2001).”
