The invasive grass, Melinis minutiflora, inhibits tree regeneration in a Neotropical savanna (2008, background): “Tree seedling growth is extremely slow in the Cerrado (Hoffmann 2000; Franco 2002), so a decade or more may be required for seedlings to overtop M. minutiflora and avoid shading.”
Nutritional adaptations of native plants of the cerrado biome in acid soils (2008, background): “…essential macronutrients in natural ecosystems and adaptations to water and nutrient stress have only been investigated during the last couple of decades in an attempt to understand the functioning of these ecosystems (Haridasan, 2001; Franco, 2002, 2005; Prado et al., 2004; Narodoto et al., 2006).”
Deep root function in soil water dynamics in cerrado savannas of central Brazil (2005, background): “1999; Franco 2002; †Author to whom correspondence should be addressed.”
Evidence for Adaptation to Fire Regimes in the Tropical Savannas of the Brazilian Cerrado (2012, background): “Cerrado trees are generally evergreen, though many drop a proportion of their leaves in the dry season (Gottsberger and Silberbauer-Gottsberger 2006; Franco 2008), and it is well known that they have profound root systems (Franco 2002).”
