Realistically Low Species Evenness Does Not Alter Grassland Species-Richness-Productivity Relationships (2004, result): “This suggests that the presence of legumes may be at least partly responsible for the reported complementarity effects in earlier studies (but not entirely, as complementarity effects were found without legumes by van Ruijven and Berendse 2003).”
ECOSYSTEM EFFECTS OF BIODIVERSITY MANIPULATIONS IN EUROPEAN GRASSLANDS (2005, background): “…this range from positive and linear (e.g., Tilman et al. 2001, He et al. 2002), to approximately log linear (e.g., Tilman et al. 1996, 1997a, Niklaus et al. 2001, Reich et al. 2001, van Ruijven and Berendse 2003) to slopes not significantly different from zero (e.g., Hooper and Vitousek 1997).”
Overyielding in experimental grassland communities - irrespective of species pool or spatial scale (2005, background): “…experiments that found a positive relationship between plant diversity and productivity were done in very different plot sizes, ranging across four orders of magnitude, from 0.03 m2 (Naeem et al. 1996), 1 m2 (van Ruijven & Berendse 2003), 4 m2 (Hector et al. 1999) to 169 m2 (Tilman et al. 1997).”
Interpreting the 'selection effect' of biodiversity on ecosystem function (2005, background): “…has been widely used to interpret the effect of experimental manipulations of plant diversity on total plant biomass or primary productivity (e.g. Loreau & Hector 2001; Fridley 2002; Hector et al. 2002; van Ruijven & Berendse 2003; Hooper & Dukes 2004; Hooper et al. 2005; Spehn et al. 2005).”
The role of complementarity and selection effects in P acquisition of intercropping systems (2017, result): “As also shown by our results, a crop that performs well in monoculture does not necessarily have a good performance in multi-species systems (van Ruijven and Berendse 2003; Wang et al. 2015).”
Plant species identity and diversity effects on different trophic levels of nematodes in the soil food web (2004, methodology): “plant communities of 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 plant species, distributed over six replicated blocks ( Van Ruijven and Berendse 2003 ).”
Complementarity among species in horizontal versus vertical rooting space (2008, methodology): “While application of the method has shown that complementarity is an essential mechanism behind the diversity– productivity relationship (Cardinale et al. 2007; Loreau and Hector 2001; Roscher et al. 2005; Tilman et al. 2001; van Ruijven and Berendse 2003 ), it remains difficult to demonstrate whic”
Complementary nitrogen use among potentially dominant species in a biodiversity experiment varies between two years (2008, background): “2002), and positive effects of species richness on community productivity were also found in experimental communities without legumes (van Ruijven & Berendse 2003).”
Diversity reduces invasibility in experimental plant communities the role of plant species (2003, methodology): “For detailed information on the experiment see Van Ruijven & Berendse (2003) .”
Overyielding among plant functional groups in a long‐term experiment (2003, background): “2a) support other observations of positive diversity effects on productivity in the absence of legumes (van Ruijven & Berendse 2003).”
Mechanisms responsible for the positive diversity–productivity relationship in Minnesota grasslands (2004, background): “…(including the C4 and legume functional groups; Reich et al. 2004), suggest that other, as yet unknown, niche differences (e.g. temporal differences in nitrogen uptake; McKane et al. 2002) also contribute to the coexistence and overyielding of legumes and C4 grasses (van Ruijven & Berendse 2003).”
