• A framework to predict the effects of livestock grazing and grazing exclusion on conservation values in natural ecosystems in Australia. (2007, background): “Livestock often promote dispersal of weed seeds (Brown and Archer 1988; Radford et al. 2001).”
• African Grass Invasion in the Americas: Ecosystem Consequences and the Role of Ecophysiology (2000, background): “For this reason, and because domestic livestock facilitate seed dispersal of woody plants (Brown and Archer 1987), grazing may be important for managing African grass invasions and restoring native ecosystems that contain fire-sensitive woody species.”
• A Conceptual Framework for Preventing the Spatial Dispersal of Invasive Plants (2007, background): “Chipmunks and other rodents often cache seeds (Vander Wall 1994), whereas ungulates often ingest acacia (Acacia P. Mill.) and mesquite (Prosopis L.) seed pods while the seeds are still inside (Brown and Archer 1987; Miller 1996).”
