• Toward more concern for specialisation and less for species diversity in conserving farmland biodiversity (2010, background): “In particular, predictions about how species richness is expected to increase or decrease following fragmentation and disturbance often differ according to the time-scale and the habitat considered (Helm et al., 2006; Kimbro and Grosholz, 2006).”
• Measuring community responses to large‐scale disturbance in conservation biogeography (2009, background): “For instance, predictions about how species richness is expected to increase or decrease following fragmentation and disturbance often differ according to the time-scale and the habitat considered (Helm et al ., 2006; Kimbro & Grosholz, 2006).”
• Impacts of alien plant invasions on species richness in Mediterranean-type ecosystems: a meta-analysis (2009, background): “Processes of extinction debt have also been recorded for extinctions related to habitat destruction or fragmentation (Helm et al., 2006).”
• Does the heathland flora in north-western Belgium show an extinction debt? (2006, background): “Hence the new equilibrium species number has not been reached so far and future extinctions are expected unless environmental conditions are improved ( Hanski and Ovaskainen, 2002 ).”
• Dispersal traits determine plant response to habitat connectivity in an urban landscape (2011, background): “Studies observing plant responses to fragmentation in old systems with a constantly increasing degree of landscape fragmentation have provided additional evidence of the confounding role of extinction debt (Grashof-Bokdam and Geertsema 1998; Helm et al. 2006; Ozinga et al. 2009).”
• Traits related to species persistence and dispersal explain changes in plant communities subjected to habitat loss (2012, background): “Among herbaceous species, clonal growth is a complementary strategy to persist locally that may lead to extensive time delays in extinction (‘extinction debt’) (Eriksson, 1996; Honnay & Bossuyt, 2005; Helm et al., 2006; Lindborg, 2007; Kuussaari et al., 2009).”
• Biodiversity of Palaearctic grasslands: a synthesis (2014, result): “This theory is supported by Janišová et al. (2014), who could demonstrate that plot-scale richness of grasslands is much higher when there are more and more diverse natural and semi-natural habitats in the surroundings.”
