Alien plant invasions in tropical and sub-tropical savannas: patterns, processes and prospects (2010, background): “…tirucalli L., which was listed among alien species (presumed to be introduced from India), has more recently been shown to be native to east and southern Africa (Carter and Radcliffe-Smith 1988; Germishuizen and Meyer 2003) and introduced to west Africa and India (Mies et al. 1996; Pandey 2000).”
Geographical affinities of the Cape flora, South Africa (2006, background): “The geographical ranges of the sister-clades were documented from Mabberley (1997), Germishuizen & Meyer (2003), and relevant floristic or monographic literature.”
Invasive alien plants infiltrate bird‐mediated shrub nucleation processes in arid savanna (2007, background): “Nomenclature for indigenous plant species follows Germishuizen & Meyer (2003), and for alien plant species, Henderson (2001).”
Endemic species and ecosystem sensitivity to climate change in Namibia (2006, methodology): “We attributed each species to a specific lifeform (succulent, geophyte, grass, annual herb, perennial herb, shrub and tree) in order to derive an index of species range change by life-forms (Germishuizen & Meyer, 2003, C. Mannheimer, personal communication).”
On the origin of southern African subtropical thicket vegetation (2005, background): “Information on the general distribution of taxa and total species numbers is taken from Leistner (2000) and Germishuizen and Meyer (2003); the arrangement of plant taxa largely follows APG II (2003), and data on representation and dominance in thicket are based on Vlok et al.”
Predicting patterns of plant species richness in megadiverse South Africa (2006, methodology): “Distribution data for the South African plant species were extracted from the PRECIS database (Germishuizen and Meyer 2003), the largest plant specimen collection in Africa, comprising georeferenced data of species presences only (at quarter degree square resolution, QDS, ca 25 /25 km at this latitu”
Widespread plant species: natives versus aliens in our changing world (2011, background): “Native species: Germishuizen and Meyer (2003); ( www.”
Weevils, weevils, weevils everywhere* (2007, unknown): “For example, Aspalathus in southern Africa numbers about 260 species and Moraea 180 (Germishuizen & Meyer 2003), Cycas about 60 in South-East Asia and Macrozamia 38 in Australia (Hill & Osborne 2001) and Callitris 17 in Australia (K. D. Hill 1998), and while not all such plant species may host a…”
Mapping ignorance: 300 years of collecting flowering plants in Africa (2016, background): “As these became available, the National Herbarium in Pretoria (PRECIS) started producing a series of plant checklists for Southern Africa, including Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland (Germishuizen & Meyer, 2003, and references therein).”
Species richness of alien plants in South Africa: Environmental correlates and the relationship with indigenous plant species richness (2005, background): “The National Herbarium Pretoria (PRE) Computerized Information Service (“PRECIS”) comprises over 800,000 herbarium specimens collated from all major South African herbaria (Germishuizen & Meyer, 2003).”
Do geographic distribution, niche property and life form explain plants' vulnerability to global change? (2006, methodology): “We used a subset of the PRECIS Database (National Herbarium Pretoria Computerised Information Service; Germishuizen & Meyer, 2003), which contains records for more than 736 000 specimens in 24 500 taxa (species and infraspecies) from southern African countries.”
