Seedling establishment of a boreal tree species (Pinus sylvestris) at its southernmost distribution limit: consequences of being in a marginal Mediterranean habitat (2004, background): “Pathogens or invertebrate herbivores, such as insects and slugs, which are the main mortality factors for Scots pine seedlings in Fennoscandia (Burdon et al. 1994; Hagner & Jonsson 1995; Nystrand & Granström 1997, 2000), had little impact here (see also Hódar et al. 1998; Castro et al. 2002a,b).”
The Role of Ground Beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in Weed Seed Consumption: A Review (2015, background): “…insects comprise an important group of seed feeders (Gallandt et al. 2005; Hulme 1998; Lundgren 2005; Mauchline et al. 2005; Menalled et al. 2000b; Nystrand and Granstrom 2000), and their role in weed seed consumption has gained attention in recent years due to their prominence in agroecosystems…”
