The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Bud banks and their role in vegetative regeneration – A literature review and proposal for simple classification and assessment (2007, background): “The response depends on the vertical distribution of regenerative buds, their dormancy and the proportion of biomass lost due to disturbance (Huhta et al., 2003).”
Understanding mutualism when there is adaptation to the partner (2005, background): “Other monocarpic species can show increased seed production following moderate cutting under field conditions ( Huhta et al . 2003 ) or artificial conditions such as reduced competitive pressure and/ or fertilizer application (Benner 1988; Alward & Joern 1993; Huhta et al . 2000a).”
Faunal impact on vegetation structure and ecosystem function in mangrove forests: A review (2008, background): “Thus, reduced herbivory may not necessarily lead to increased plant performance since plants may compensate or even overcompensate in response to herbivory (Huhta et al., 2003).”
