Fire management for biodiversity conservation: Key research questions and our capacity to answer them (2010, background): “To date, the most valuable predictions using functional groups arise from higher plants, where functional groups can be formed based on detailed, species-level information (Bradstock and Kenny, 2003; Keith et al., 2007; Pausas et al., 2004).”

A review (2012, background): “Life cycle, plant morphology and re-growth ability are involved in plant response to grazing (Diaz et al. 2007) and/or to fire (Ackerly 2004; Pausas et al. 2004; Keith et al. 2007).”
