• Restoring Quercus pyrenaica forests using pioneer shrubs as nurse plants (2006, unknown): “…shrubs may protect Q. pyrenaica seedlings from browsing and trampling of vertebrate herbivores (Gómez et al. 2003; see also Callaway & D’Antonio 1991; Rousset & Lepart 2000 for other Quercus species and García et al. 2000; Castro et al. 2004b; Baraza et al. in press, for other tree species).”
• Recruitment limitation of forest communities in a degraded Mediterranean landscape (2009, background): “The native forest offers food and shelter to bird dispersers thanks to its high degree of structural heterogeneity (Garcı́a et al. 2000).”
• Facilitation of tree saplings by nurse plants: Microhabitat amelioration or protection against herbivores? (2008, result): “The results from this study provide new insights into the mechanisms underlying the spatial patterns of regeneration associated with shrubs as reported for many woody species in stressful environments (Callaway 1992; Rey & Alcántara 2000; García et al. 2000; Gómez et al. 2001).”
• A seeding experiment for testing tree-community recruitment under variable environments: Implications for forest regeneration and conservation in Mediterranean habitats (2009, background): “These populations represent the southern limit of the distribution area and, under a Mediterranean climate, boreo-alpine species face environmental constraints that differ from those of their main, northern distribution area (García et al., 2000; Castro et al., 2004; Hampe and Petit, 2005).”
• Seedling establishment of a boreal tree species (Pinus sylvestris) at its southernmost distribution limit: consequences of being in a marginal Mediterranean habitat (2004, background): “Management strategies concerning either seeding or planting of seedlings should therefore consider shrubby species as regeneration niches to ensure establishment success (see also García et al. 2000; Gómez et al. 2001a, 2004; Castro et al. 2002a, 2004).”
• Taxus baccata L. (2003, background): “In the Mediterranean basin, García et al. (2000) note that T. baccata has become restricted to mountainous areas which they attribute to climatic regression and human activities.”
