Effects of grazing intensity on pollinator abundance and diversity, and on pollination services (2016, background): “E-mail: amparo.lazaro@imedea.uib-csic.es (Pykälä, 2004; Navarro et al., 2006), and influences the structure and dynamics of the entire plant–pollinator community (Potts et al., 2003; Vanbergen et al., 2014).”
Restoration of grazing management and its effect on vegetation in an upland grassland (2007, background): “Several studies have shown that plant height seems to be the best single predictor of species reaction to intensive defoliation in regularly grazed species (Díaz et al. 2001; Pavlů et al. 2003; Pykälä 2004).”
Grazing alters insect visitation networks and plant mating systems (2014, unknown): “Consistent with earlier studies in this (Vanbergen et al. 2006) and other ecosystems (Grant et al. 1996; Pykala 2004), the grazed plant assemblages were typified by a greater number of species that offer floral resources to vis- iting insects.”
