Diversity and dominance in palm (Arecaceae) communities in terra firme forests in the western Amazon basin (2004, background): “Furthermore, the distribution of woody understorey species in the Colombian portion of the Amazon basin was found to correlate better with soil conditions than the distribution of canopy species (Duque et al. 2002).”
Tree species distributions and local habitat variation in the Amazon: large forest plot in eastern Ecuador (2004, result): “Duque et al. (2002) found the same pattern in the Colombian Amazon.”
Soil nutrients and beta diversity in the Bornean Dipterocarpaceae: evidence for niche partitioning by tropical rain forest trees (2006, background): “50 ha to > 40 000 km in tropical palms, ferns, understorey and overstorey trees (Gartlan et al. 1986; Clark et al. 1999; Svenning 1999; Debski et al. 2002; Duque et al. 2002; Potts et al. 2002; Phillips et al. 2003; Tuomisto et al. 2003).”
Integrating environmental and spatial processes in ecological community dynamics. (2005, result): “Several tropical rain forest studies that I know of (Duivenvoorden et al. 2002; Duque et al. 2002; Tuomisto et al. 2003; Cannon & Leighton 2004; Vormisto et al. 2004), however, performed a similar study.”
Mesoscale distribution patterns of Amazonian understorey herbs in relation to topography, soil and watersheds (2005, background): “Oliver et al. (1998) detected more turnover for understorey than overstorey plants, and Duque et al. (2002) showed more effect of geographical distance in the composition of understorey compared with canopy plants.”
Spatial patterns in the understorey shrub genus Psychotria in central Amazonia: effects of distance and topography (2005, background): “Duque et al. (2002) reported that species that occurred only in one plot had lower local densities than species that occurred in more than one plot, independent of whether the species were considered habitat specialists or not.”
