Fitness and evolution of resprouters in relation to fire (2011, background): “and been lost repeatedly within lineages of genera well represented in Mediterranean-type regions (Bond and Midgley 2003; Pausas and Verdú 2005).”
The challenge of plant regeneration after fire in the Mediterranean Basin: scientific gaps in our knowledge on plant strategies and evolution of traits (2007, background): “Another explanation why many species developed either effective seeding or resprouting capacity but rarely double strategies is the existence of allocation tradeoffs (Pausas and Verdú 2005).”
Plant functional types: are we getting any closer to the Holy Grail? (2007, methodology): “However, by a phylogenetically controlled analysis (Pausas & Verdú 2005).”
Soil water availability effects on seed germination account for species segregation in semiarid roadslopes (2007, unknown): “Species with both the ability to resprout and to germinate as response to perturbation have been described in relation to fire (Pausas and Verdú 2005).”
Inferring differential evolutionary processes of plant persistence traits in Northern Hemisphere Mediterranean fire‐prone ecosystems (2006, methodology): “The two phylogenetic trees were then merged to form a new supertree (EICA; Fig. 1). The EIBER phylogenetic tree was fully resolved ( Pausas & Verdu 2005 ) but the CALIF tree, and consequently the EICA tree, presented several polytomies.”
Burning seeds: germinative response to heat treatments in relation to resprouting ability (2008, background): “S+ are more frequent than could be expected by chance, even when phylogenetic relatedness is considered (Pausas & Verdú 2005).”
Phylogenetic signatures of facilitation and competition in successional communities (2009, background): “…both seeders and resprouters (Trabaud & Lepart 1980; Pausas et al. 2004), and these two post-fire regeneration strategies are linked to the evolutionary origins with resprouters predominantly belonging to the Tertiary group and seeders to the Quaternary group (Verdú 2000; Pausas & Verdú 2005).”
Simulating Mediterranean landscape pattern and vegetation dynamics under different fire regimes (2006, methodology): “Species attributes (Table 1) are obtained from field experience and from the literature (Lloret 1998; Pausas 1999a, b; Pausas et al. 1999, 2004c; Lloret et al. 2003; Pausas and Verdú 2005).”
Leaf traits and resprouting ability in the Mediterranean basin (2006, background): “The selected species represent the range of persistent types in the Mediterranean basin, thus the number of nonresprouters is low and phylogenetically aggregated (Pausas & Verdú 2005).”
Integrating demography and fire management: an example from Florida scrub (2007, background): “Post-burn recovery modes of plants (or life-history strategies or vital attributes or plant persistence traits) in relation to fire usually fundamentally distinguish plants that can resprout from plants that depend on recruitment from seeds (Menges and Kohfeldt 1995; Pausas and Verdu 2005).”
Fire drives phylogenetic clustering in Mediterranean Basin woody plant communities (2007, background): “In the Mediterranean Basin, the P+ state is very rare in old lineages; it appeared concomitantly with fire during the Quaternary ( Pausas & Verdu 2005 ).”
