• Recovery of plant species composition and ecosystem function after cessation of grazing in a Mediterranean grassland (2010, background): “Plant litter quality is known to strongly influence litter decomposition rate (Carrera et al. 2008; Gartner and Cardon 2004; Henry et al. 2005; Lodge et al. 2006; White et al. 2004).”
• Plant Species Diversity and Management of Temperate Forage and Grazing Land Ecosystems (2004, background): “Another study at the same location found a strong two-species mixtures of the best adapted species, the difnegative relationship between sward functional characficulty in predicting which species to use, and variation teristics (such as crude protein, digestibility, fiber, and in the best species be”
• Effect of continuous grazing on forage quality, quantity and animal performance (2006, background): “species diversity, forage quality and biomass production, causing in many cases conflicts between farmers and nature conservation (Mitchley, 2001; White et al., 2004 ).”
• Interaction of Plant Species Diversity on Grazing Behavior and Performance of Livestock Grazing Temperate Region Pastures (2007, background): “, 1983) and studies in the New Zealand hill country reported inconsistent evidence of production responses to forage species richness (Scott, 2001; Dodd et al., 2003; White et al., 2004).”
• Production and Nutritive Value of Grazed Simple and Complex Forage Mixtures (2007, background): “There were slight-to-nonexistent differences in nutritive value among the species richness groups (Table 6). These results contrast with White et al. (2004) , who reported a negative relationship between forage species richness and CP and a positive relationship between NDFand forage species richne”
