Distribution mapping of world grassland types (2014, background): “…height, 10% or more canopy cover, > 0.5 ha, and not under agricultural or other non-forest land use; FAO, 2010), grasslands are variously defined (e.g. Gibson, 2009; and see the FAO’s compilation of definitions http:// www.fao.org/agriculture/crops/thematic-sitemap/theme/spi/gcwg/ definitions/en/).”
Grazing‐induced shifts in community functional composition and soil nutrient availability in Tibetan alpine meadows (2016, background): “Species-specific changes in traits due to both phenotypic responses of individual plants and genotypic differentiation following grazing have been well documented (reviewed in Diaz et al. 2007b; Gibson 2009; Mason et al. 2011).”
Biodiversity of Palaearctic grasslands: a synthesis (2014, background): “The origin of the grass family (Poaceae) dates back to the Cretaeous period (89–83 million years ago), but the diversification and he development of grass-dominated ecosystems happened much ater (Gibson, 2009).”
Mycosphere notes 1-50: Grass (Poaceae) inhabiting Dothideomycetes (2017, background): “Humans depend on grasses, including cereal crops (such as barley, maize, rice, rye sorghum and wheat) for a major portion of their diet and making alcoholic beverages, bamboo for building construction and food, sugarcane for producing sugar, rum and also an energy source (Kellogg 2001, Gibson 2009).”
Biological Flora of the British Isles: Phragmites australis (2017, background): “Photosynthesis is by the C3 pathway (Gibson 2009).”
Seed predators limit plant recruitment in Neotropical savannas (2011, unknown): “Savannas are the dominant ecosystem in the tropics and subtropics (Huntley and Walker 1982, Gibson 2009).”
Dominant Grasses Suppress Local Diversity in Restored Tallgrass Prairie (2010, background): “Mesic grasslands worldwide have been degraded by conversion to agriculture, altered disturbance regimes, fragmentation, improper grazing by domestic livestock, and exotic species invasion (Gibson 2009).”
A Global Review on Locusts (Orthoptera: Acrididae) and Their Interactions With Livestock Grazing Practices (2019, background): “Firstly, grasses belongs to the fifth-largest plant family with over 10,000 species and are very ubiquitous in their distribution (Gibson, 2009).”
