Early effects of a wildfire on the diversity and production of fungal communities in Mediterranean vegetation types dominated by Cistus ladanifer and Pinus pinaster in Spain (2006, background): “These shrub species are obligate seeders and pioneers after a fire when they germinate rapidly from a persistent soil seed bank which is stimulated by a thermal increase (Nèman et al., 1995; Trabaud and Renard, 1999; Calvo et al., 2003).”
The challenge of plant regeneration after fire in the Mediterranean Basin: scientific gaps in our knowledge on plant strategies and evolution of traits (2007, background): “In areas where fires reach great heat intensity, post-fire seeders are clearly at an advantage (Canadell and López-Soria 1998; Calvo et al. 2003; Pausas et al. 2003), though lignotuber building species may be well protected.”
Restoring Quercus pyrenaica forests using pioneer shrubs as nurse plants (2006, unknown): “…silviculture (Jiménez et al. 1998; Costa-Tenorio et al. 1998), but these forests are now seriously deteriorated due to historical human action (Calvo et al. 2003; Ibáñez et al. 1997; Blanca et al. 1998; Blanca 2002), and in many cases they represent impoverished patches of former, more…”
Herbivory has a greater impact in shade than in sun: response of Quercus pyrenaica seedlings to multifactorial environmental variation (2004, unknown): “pyrenaica to resprout (Calvo et al. 2003).”
