Long‐term assessment of seed limitation in plants: results from an 11‐year experiment (2006, background): “The suitability for recruitment in unoccupied as well as occupied patches may hold only for the actual sowing plots, not for the patch as a whole (Münzbergová 2004).”
Ecological rather than geographic or genetic distance affects local adaptation of the rare perennial herb, Aster amellus (2007, background): “However, transferring plants may disrupt local adaptation and lead to reduction in offspring fitness (outbreeding depression; e.g. Hufford and Mazer, 2003).”
Effects of bryophytes and grass litter on seedling emergence vary by vertical seed position and seed size (2010, background): “Therefore, changes in the quality and quantity of microsites have a great impact on community composition, diversity and succession through the effects on seed germination and seedling emergence (Davis et al. 2000; Münzbergová 2004; Fenner and Thompson 2005).”
Assembly rules operating along a primary riverbed–grassland successional sequence (2006, background): “The trait-based approach has been widely advocated in recent years (e.g. Wilson & Watkins 1994; Belyea & Lancaster 1999; Wilson 1999; Munzbergova 2004) because assembly rules based on species traits have many advantages over species-based rules (Weiher & Keddy 1995).”
