• Mechanistic models of seed dispersal by wind (2011, background): “Seed dispersal ability, especially over long distances, therefore becomes a key trait determining how well species can track their shifting ranges and colonize new habitats (e.g., Clark et al. 2001; Soons et al. 2005 ; N athan et al.2011).”
• Dispersal traits determine plant response to habitat connectivity in an urban landscape (2011, background): “The production of many seeds may increase the chance of colonization even if the dispersal range is limited (Grashof-Bokdam and Geertsema 1998; Butaye et al. 2001; Tackenberg et al. 2003; Soons et al. 2005; Bossuyt and Honnay 2006).”
• Woody Species as Landscape Modulators and Their Effect on Biodiversity Patterns (2008, background): “The multilayered patchiness controls the flow of resources (Schlesinger et al. 1990, Ludwig and Tongway 1995) and organisms (Soons et al. 2005) across the landscape, and thus the contrast of resources between the landscapemodulator patches and the unmodulated area (Boeken and Shachak 1994).”
• Assessing the integrated effects of landscape fragmentation on plants and plant communities: the challenge of multiprocess–multiresponse dynamics (2014, background): “2009) and by increasing colonization, mainly of wind dispersed species [Graae 2000; although these may also be negatively affected by isolation (Soons et al. 2005)].”
• Predicting species distribution and abundance responses to climate change: why it is essential to include biotic interactions across trophic levels (2010, background): “Maximum dispersal potential may not be reached when dispersal is limited by physical barriers, when habitats are fragmented or when species require special conditions in the recipient habitats (Soons et al. 2005).”
• Effect of habitat area and isolation on plant trait distribution in European forests and grasslands (2012, background): “With respect to seed size, plants with large seeds have been suggested to be more sensitive to isolation than small seeded plants (Soons et al. 2005, R ö mermann et al. 2008).”
• Seed dispersal by dabbling ducks: an overlooked dispersal pathway for a broad spectrum of plant species (2016, background): “…have shown that intact survival rates vary from 0 to 70% across plant species (Van Leeuwen et al. 2012) and germination rates vary from 0 to ca. 50% of ingested seeds across plant species (0–32%, Soons et al. 2008; 0–5; %, Wongsriphuek, Dugger & Bartuszevige 2008; 1–48%, Brochet et al. 2010b).”
• Dispersal, demography and spatial population models for conservation and control management (2008, background): “Recently, such detailed maps have been made for protected grassland herbs (e.g. Succisa pratensis), including information on both present and historical habitat distributions (e.g. Soons et al., 2005; Herben et al., 2006).”
• Costs of dispersal (2012, background): “Biological Reviews © 2011 Cambridge Philosophical Society nutrient conditions and intraspecific competition have been shown to influence wind dispersal in seeds because of changes in plant height and neighbouring vegetation structure (Soons & Heil, 2002; Soons et al., 2005).”
• The rough edges of the conservation genetics paradigm for plants (2006, background): “This may be due to the inherent difficulties of defining isolation (Moilanen & Nieminen 2002; Soons et al. 2005) or measuring long-distance dispersal (e.”
• Prospects for fen meadow restoration on severely degraded fens (2010, background): “Unfortunately, the dispersal capacity of target species is in general low (Bakker et al., 1996; Poschlod and Bonn, 1998; Soons et al., 2005; Van den Broek et al., 2005).”
• Plant functional group composition and large-scale species richness in European agricultural landscapes (2008, background): “…conclusion is not consistent with general knowledge as shown for animals (McCoy & Mushinsky 1994; Bender et al. 1998; Fahrig 2003; Schooley & Wiens 2005), that has already been challenged by plant ecologists (Harrison & Bruna 1999; Dauber et al. 2003; Murphy & Lovett-Doust 2004; Soons et al. 2005).”
• Factors and processes affecting plant biodiversity in permanent grasslands. A review (2011, unknown): “First, most linear landscape elements are unsuitable for seedling establishment because of high plant productivity and vegetative cover (Soons and Heil 2002; Soons et al. 2005; van Dorp et al. 1997).”
