• Direct seeding of late-successional trees to restore tropical montane forest (2011, background): “…2002; Doust et al., 2006; Hooper et al., 2002) but performance mong individual species varies greatly and growth is often slow. any species, including early-successional and small-seeded trees, ill have higher establishment and growth rates when planted as eedlings (see Engel and Parrotta, 2001).”
• Direct seeding to restore rainforest species: Microsite effects on the early establishment and growth of rainforest tree seedlings on degraded land in the wet tropics of Australia (2006, background): “Investigations into how direct seeding might be applied to degraded land in tropical and sub-tropical rainforest regions are limited, even though the technique may have some significant cost advantages (Engel and Parrotta, 2001; Camargo et al., 2002; Sun and Dickinson, 1995; Vanderwoude et al., 1996”
• Is Direct Seeding a Biologically Viable Strategy for Restoring Forest Ecosystems? Evidences from a Meta‐analysis (2016, methodology): “Although rarely compared directly with seedling planting, the technique has been practised in North America (Moulton & Hernández, 2000) and Europe (Nabos & Epaillard, 1995), and recently in the tropics (Engel & Parrotta, 2001; Bonilla-Moheno & Holl, 2010).”
• Dominance of legume trees alters nutrient relations in mixed species forest restoration plantings within seven years (2008, methodology): “We compared two planting mixtures of contrasting functional composition, which are part of a largescale experiment involving a randomized complete block design with four planting designs and an unplanted control (details in Engel and Parrotta 2001).”
• Principles of Natural Regeneration of Tropical Dry Forests for Restoration (2006, background): “…forest recovery based on a small pool of winddispersed species will likely facilitate colonization by other species (Toh et al. 1999; Otsamo 2000; Engel & Parrotta 2001; Feyera et al. 2002; Fensham & Butler 2004; but see Parrotta 1995 and Kanowski et al. 2003, 2005 for a detailed analysis on the…”
• Contemporary forest restoration: A review emphasizing function (2014, background): “Direct seeding has proven to be a successful, low-cost alternative to growing and outplanting seedlings for some species (Engel and Parrotta, 2001; Camargo et al., 2002; Madsen and Löf, 2005; Dodd and Power, 2007; Doust et al., 2008; Cole et al., 2011), as long as it is done properly (Bullard et…”
• Does Restoration Enhance Regeneration of Seasonal Deciduous Forests in Pastures in Central Brazil? (2007, background): “…that broadcast seeding of multiple tree species in areas dominated by exotic grasses is generally not very successful and highly species specific (Engel & Parrotta 2001), especially in dry forests where the emerging seedlings need to endure some months with soil water deficit (Cabin et al. 2002).”
