Seed size and provenance mediate the joint effects of disturbance and seed predation on community assembly (2012, background): “…disturbance) can enhance recruitment of added species (Sagar & Harper 1961; Putwain & Harper 1970; Gross & Werner 1982; Turkington, Klein & Chanway 1993; Jutila & Grace 2002; Mouquet et al. 2004) because resident vegetation often monopolizes microsites needed by colonizing species for germination.”
Effect of spatial scale on factors limiting species distributions in dry grassland fragments (2004, background): “…such factors can be identified (e.g. Eriksson & Ehrlén 1992; Ehrlén & Eriksson 2000), whereas studies testing the effect of environmental factors within localities usually succeed (e.g. Kelly 1989; Peart 1989; Robinson et al. 1995; Tilman 1997; Franzén 2002; Jutila & Grace 2002; Xiong et al. 2003).”
Seed dispersal into wetlands: Techniques and results for a restored tidal freshwater marsh (2005, methodology): “Rarefaction estimates have also been used to determine species richness of seeds (Jutila and Grace 2002), stream macroinvertebrates (McCabe and Gotelli 2000), and ants (Gotelli and Ellison 2002).”
The role of the seed bank, seed rain and the timing of disturbance in gap regeneration (2005, background): “Increasing gap size increased the proportion of individual ramets that had regenerated from seed (Bullock et al. 1995) and increased survivorship, growth and reproduction (Jutila & Grace 2002).”
Interactive effects of soil moisture, vegetation canopy, plant litter and seed addition on plant diversity in a wetland community (2003, background): “…only certain species to germinate and emerge through the litter layer (cf. Facelli & Pickett 1991; Xiong et al. 2001), whereas canopy shade, which also affects both germination and seedling survival, may discriminate less between species (Tilman 1993; Suding & Goldberg 1999; Jutila & Grace 2002).”
ARE INVASIVE SPECIES THE DRIVERS OR PASSENGERS OF CHANGE IN DEGRADED ECOSYSTEMS (2005, background): “Recruitment by all species appears to be more suppressed by the litter layer than the living foliage, a finding observed in other grasslands (Foster and Gross 1998, Jutila and Grace 2002).”
Seed limitation and the regulation of community structure in oak savanna grassland (2003, background): “We examine the effects of a one-time seed addition of 23 grassland species on plant community dynamics and structure over eight growing seasons.”
Changes in light and nitrogen availability under pioneer trees may indirectly facilitate tree invasions of grasslands (2003, background): “…Sapium differs from the dominant plants at our site in many ways other than being an alien species, pairing it with an ecologically similar native species in experiments can give a better understanding of the mechanisms of invasion (Barrett & Richardson 1986; Mack 1996; Keane & Crawley 2002).”
Effect of burning and mowing on grass and forb diversity in a long-term grassland experiment (2004, background): “Complete protection from disturbance resulted in high litter levels on the soil surface (Fynn et al. 2003), which may reduce germination and emergence of seedlings (Foster & Gross 1998; Lepš 1999; Jutila & Grace 2002).”
