Improved productivity and modified tree morphology of mixed versus pure stands of European beech (Fagus sylvatica) and Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) with increasing precipitation and age (2016, background): “However, this rooting strategy needs much more replication to be accepted (Rothe and Binkley 2001).”
Competition for light and water play contrasting roles in driving diversity–productivity relationships in Iberian forests (2014, background): “…fewer pest and pathogen outbreaks (Pautasso, Holdenrieder & Stenlid 2005; Jactel & Brockerhoff 2007), store more carbon below-ground (Brassard et al. 2011; Lei, Scherer-Lorenzen & Bauhus 2012; Gamfeldt et al. 2013), and cycle nutrients more efficiently (Rothe & Binkley 2001; H€attenschwiler 2005).”
Functional role of forest diversity: Pros and cons of synthetic stands and across-site comparisons in established forests (2009, background): “Leaf area index and canopy architecture are also sensitive to edge effects in small plots as is litter input (Rothe & Binkley, 2001; Scherer- Lorenzen et al., 2005).”
Exploring the functional significance of forest diversity: A new long-term experiment with temperate tree species (BIOTREE) (2007, background): “Positive mixture effects have been reported for stemwood production (Pretzsch, 2005), nutrient cycling (Rothe and Binkley, 2001), decomposition (Hättenschwiler, 2005), and damage by insect pests (Jactel et al.”
Is Tree Species Diversity or Species Identity the More Important Driver of Soil Carbon Stocks, C/N Ratio, and pH? (2016, background): “The tree species included in our 330 study were reported to have vertically stratified root distributions, and this stratification could be enhanced in 331 mixed stands (Rothe and Binkley, 2001).”
Identifying the tree species compositions that maximize ecosystem functioning in European forests (2018, background): “Many of the ecosystem properties included here are not directly related to light availability (e.g., nutrient cycling related drivers or processes; Rothe & Binkley 2001) and our findings show that the mechanisms responsible for overyielding of mixtures (for an overview see Forrester & Bauhus 2016),…”
Mixed-species plantations: Prospects and challenges (2006, neutral): “Rothe and Binkley ( 2001 ) 350 observed that there are few systematic studies of particular mixtures across soil 351 gradients ( notably Wardle et al .”
Mixed-species plantations of Eucalyptus with nitrogen-fixing trees: A review (2006, background): “In their review on nutritional interactions in mixtures, Rothe and Binkley (2001) recommended two components to future research.”
Mixed-species plantations of Acacia mangium and Eucalyptus grandis in Brazil (2008, background): “A more environmentally sound option for supplying the N requirements of fast growing plantations and improving soil N status might be achieved by introducing N-fixing trees (NFT) in mixed-species plantations (Rothe and Binkley, 2001).”
On the success and failure of mixed-species tree plantations: lessons learned from a model system of Eucalyptus globulus and Acacia mearnsii (2005, background): “These interactions and processes could also be studied when replicated experiments are unavailable but where different species are growing next to each other and are likely to be interacting (Ewers et al., 1996; Rothe and Binkley, 2001).”
Belowground interspecific competition in mixed boreal forests: fine root and ectomycorrhiza characteristics along stand developmental stage and soil fertility gradients (2010, neutral): “However, although changes in soil chemistry due to a deciduous admixture have been reported in many studies, little evidence of improved tree nutrition has been presented (reviewed by Rothe and Binkley 2001 ).”
