- Effects of plant phylogenetic diversity on herbivory depend on herbivore specialization (2014, background): “Several recent syntheses have demonstrated the benefits of mixed forests, compared with monocultures, in terms of productivity (Piotto 2008; Paquette & Messier 2011; Zhang, Chen & Reich 2012), resistance to herbivores (Jactel & Brockerhoff 2007), windthrow (Griess et al. 2012) and, more generally, m”
- Tamm Review: On the strength of evidence when comparing ecosystem functions of mixtures with monocultures (2015, background): “Conversely, the stand density of mixtures relative to monocultures may be increased when mixed stands are more resistant to windthrow, bark beetle attacks, or snow damage (Griess and Knoke, 2011; Griess et al., 2012).”
- Persisting bark beetle outbreak indicates the unsustainability of secondary Norway spruce forests: case study from Central Europe (2013, unknown): “Maintenance of stand diversity and introduction of broadleaved species should increase resistance to windthrow and bark beetle attack (Griess et al. 2012) and secure the sustainable provision of ecosystem functions, goods and services.”
