Journal ArticleDOI
The biological flora of Central Europe: Campanula thyrsoides L.
TL;DR: This article reviews the taxonomy, morphology, distribution, ecology, life cycle, population biology, and genetics of this species as well as its status in the European countries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mature trees as keystone structures in Holarctic ecosystems - a quantitative species comparison in a northern English park
TL;DR: Alder has not attracted particular attention in these habitats, and it is suggested that its fast-growing and rot-prone nature may make it of particular interest for conservation of saproxylic biodiversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between the Al resistance of grasses and their adaptation to an infertile habitat.
TL;DR: The Al resistance of the C-S-R species was variable and independent of their traits, and the large difference in Al resistance between grasses may help assess Al soil toxicity by using the abundance of grasses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competition between Quercus petraea and Carpinus betulus in an ancient wood in England: seedling survivorship
M.G. Le Due,D.C. Havill +1 more
TL;DR: Age structures of populations of canopy trees in Wormley Wood are consistent with reports that successional change is occurring, with Carpinus betulus replacing Quercus petraea as the dominant species, and species- and site-specific variation in the types and effects of herbivory were found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluctuating resources, disturbance and plant strategies: diverse mechanisms underlying plant invasions
Ian J. Radford,Ian J. Radford +1 more
TL;DR: The diverse functional responses to increased resource availability among invaders suggest that the cause of invasion depends on unique combinations of habitat and functional attributes of invaders and native assemblages, and imply that universal predictions of what will happen under climate change scenarios across the globe will be difficult to make.
