Ecological Effects of Transgenic Crops and the Escape of Transgenes into Wild Populations (2004, background): “For example, in experimental plots in which goldenrod plants were sprayed with insecticide, goldenrod abundance increased while the abundance of other species decreased (Carson & Root 1999, 2000).”
Plant species traits and capacity for resource reduction predict yield and abundance under competition in nitrogen‐limited grassland (2006, background): “…ability to access atmospheric N; limitation by other resources such as phosphorus, light or water (Tsialtas et al. 2001); and interactions mediated by herbivores, pathogens or symbiotic fungi may all influence species abundance (Carson & Root 2000; Packer & Clay 2000; Klironomos 2002; Bever 2003).”
Trade‐offs in community ecology: linking spatial scales and species coexistence (2004, background): “…& Lenski 2000a,b; Peacor & Werner 2001; Steiner 2003), and indirect evidence, in the response of different groups of species to removal of predators or increases of resources, is also prevalent (Paine 1966; Morin 1983; Lewis 1986; Leibold 1999; Carson & Root 2000; Chase et al. 2000b; Chase 2003).”
Biotic interactions and plant invasions. (2006, background): “Herbivores can also decrease plant competitive ability (e.g. Carson & Root 2000).”
Soil community feedback and the coexistence of competitors: conceptual frameworks and empirical tests. (2003, background): “This appreciation has been fueled by clear examples of above-ground herbivory driving changes in plant community composition (Tansley & Adamson, 1925; Carson & Root, 2000; Howe et al ., 2002).”
Community‐level plant palatability increases with elevation as insect herbivore abundance declines (2017, background): “Evidence suggests that herbivore communities can influence plant species composition (e.g. Carson & Root 2000; Fine, Mesones & Coley 2004) and related plant functional traits.”
Chronic over browsing and biodiversity collapse in a forest understory in Pennsylvania: Results from a 60 year-old deer exclusion plot (2011, methodology): “We then selected the individual nearest the tip of the meter stick (Carson and Root 2000).”
Rare Species and Ecosystem Functioning (2005, background): “Carson and Root (2000) document six cases from the literature where outbreaks had large effects on vegetation.”
When do herbivores affect plant invasion? Evidence for the natural enemies and biotic resistance hypotheses (2001, background): “Long-term insect exclusion studies have shown that periodic defoliation by two outbreaking species of chrysomelid beetles, Microrhopala 6ittata and Trirhabda 6irgata, reduces the density of goldenrod ramets (Root 1996, Carson and Root 2000).”
The Various Effects of Insects on Ecosystem Functioning (2008, background): “…in plants, but also have longer-lasting effects by changing a number of parameters that affect matter fluxes such as soil nutrient availability, the physiology of long-living plants such as trees, or plant species composition (e.g. Carson and Root 2000; Kosola et al. 2001; Christenson et al. 2002).”
Trophic control of grassland production and biomass by pathogens (2003, methodology): “Additionally, a greenhouse experiment was conducted to quantify any effects of the experimental pesticide treatments on plant growth resulting from mechanisms other than disease and herbivory reduction (Brown & Gange 1989; Paul et al. 1989; Peters & Shaw 1996; Carson & Root 2000 ).”
Mechanisms responsible for the positive diversity–productivity relationship in Minnesota grasslands (2004, background): “soil pathogens, herbivores) contribute to overyielding of individual species (Bever et al. 1997; Carson & Root 2000; Klironomos 2002), although the extremely low rates of insect herbivory on overyielding C4 grasses relative to other functional groups (Haddad et al. 2001; Burt-Smith et al. 2003) su”
The merging of community ecology and phylogenetic biology. (2009, background): “Examining the conservatism in ecologically relevant functional traits in relation to the spatial distribution of traits or their distributions across environmental gradients can help decipher the processes that cause phylogenetic structure in communities (Cavender-Bares & Wilczek 2003 ).”
