Soil water availability effects on seed germination account for species segregation in semiarid roadslopes (2007, positive): “In highly eroded slopes under severe water stress, such as south-facing roadcuts, sprouting may be an advantageous strategy over seeding as it allows species to persist continuously after disturbance (Bellingham 2000; Bond and Midgley 2001, 2003).”
The challenge of plant regeneration after fire in the Mediterranean Basin: scientific gaps in our knowledge on plant strategies and evolution of traits (2007, background): “In addition, in low-frequency fire regimes, resprouters may eventually loose their above ground competitive ability as they utilise energy for the production of storage organs (Bellingham and Sparrow 2000) and evidence suggests that multi-stemmed resprouters are easily out competed by mainly single-”
Integrating demography and fire management: an example from Florida scrub (2007, background): “Strong resprouting (many stems) may involve a tradeoff with height growth (Bellingham and Sparrow 2000; Cavender-Bares et al. 2004).”
Fitness and evolution of resprouters in relation to fire (2011, background): “There is a strong overall correlation between relative abundance of resprouting among and within woody plant species and fire frequency (Bellingham and Sparrow 2000 for disturbance generally; Clarke and Knox 2002; Vesk and Westoby 2004b; Fig.”
New handbook for standardised measurement of plant functional traits worldwide (2013, background): “References on theory, significance and large datasets: Noble and Slatyer (1980); Everham and Brokaw (1996); Pausas (1997); Kammesheidt (1999); Bellingham and Sparrow (2000); Bond and Midgley (2001); Higgins et al. (2000); Del Tredici (2001); New handbook for measurement of plant traits Australian Jo”
CHANGING THE GAP DYNAMICS PARADIGM: VEGETATIVE REGENERATION CONTROL ON FOREST RESPONSE TO DISTURBANCE (2008, background): “…the complexity of vegetative responses and lack of quantification means that non-seed regeneration rarely enters theoretical discussions (Clark 1991, Bellingham and Sparrow 2000, Loehle 2000, Bond and Midgley 2001) or models of forest response to contemporary global change (de Groot et al. 2003).”
Resprouting patterns after fire and response to stool cleaning of two coexisting Mediterranean oaks with contrasting leaf habits on two different sites (2003, background): “Resprouting is considered an efficient life-history trait by which woody plants can recover lost biomass after disturbance (Bellingham, 2000).”
Multi‐stemmed trees in montane rain forests: their frequency and demography in relation to elevation, soil nutrients and disturbance (2009, background): “Multi-stemmed architecture in rain forests will become more prevalent as productivity declines (Bellingham & Sparrow 2000).”
Sprouting ability across diverse disturbances and vegetation types worldwide (2004, background): “Sprouting allows a species to persist in a site after a wide range of disturbances ( Bellingham & Sparrow 2000; Bond & Midgley 2001, 2003).”
Sprouting by semi‐arid plants: testing a dichotomy and predictive traits (2004, result): “This strengthens our conclusion that the between-species pattern of taller species being less likely to sprout is a secondary correlation due to these species having single or few stems, rather than height per se preventing species from sprouting (Bellingham and Sparrow 2000).”
