Effects of grazing abandonment on functional and taxonomic diversity of Mediterranean grasslands (2012, background): “Most studies n Mediterranean environments relate grazed systems to lighteeded species (Castro et al., 2010; Lavorel et al., 1999; McIntyre nd Lavorel, 2001; Peco et al., 2005), although this relationship s not universal (Fernández-Alés et al.”
Recovery of plant species composition and ecosystem function after cessation of grazing in a Mediterranean grassland (2010, background): “lignin) are generally more common (Noy-Meir et al. 1989; Osem et al. 2004; Peco et al. 2005; Sternberg et al. 2000), since they avoid grazing by virtue of their low stature, and thrive in open patches left after grazing (Osem et al.”
Cattle grazing, raptor abundance and small mammal communities in Mediterranean grasslands (2007, result): “The dominant grass species found in our study plots were fairly similar to those found by Peco et al. (2005).”
