Vegetation patterns and plant reproductive processes in the succulent Karoo
… properties associated with species turnover (replacement series). Patterns of species abundances have been attributed to cyclic succession driven by disturbance and inter-specific competition. Areas where dominant species replaced each other over apparent edaphic discontinuities were …

Competition for Nitrogen Between Eastern Black Nightshade and Fresh Market Tomatoes
… stage of shoot and root growth earlier. A replacement series field study using 15N was conducted with staked fresh market tomatoes and SOLPT, which included two plant populations, and four N treatments. Overall, tomato grew taller faster, and gained more shoot mass than SOLPT regardless of …

Interference interactions in experimental pine-hardwood stands
… and elucidate their mechanisms, a field replacement series experiment and two supporting greenhouse experiments were carried out using loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.), red maple (Acer rubrum L.), black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.), and herbaceous vegetation. Interference between pine. …

Biotic Interaction of Invasive, Early-Succession Trees and Their Effects on Community Diversity: a Multi-Scale Study Using the Exotic Invasive Ailanthus altissima and the Native Robinia pseudoacacia in the Mid-Appalachian Forest of Eastern United States
Invasive plants can displace native species, deteriorate native forest, and change plant communities and ecosystem functions. Native plant populations are fundamentally impacted by invasive species because of the interactions between invasive species and native plants. This study focuses on …

Some Like It Hot: Physiology, Biogeography, and the Impacts of Climate Change On Three Marine Mussel Species
… These three species form a biogeographic replacement series with respect to temperature, as one species replaces another as climate varies with latitude. We examined several of the mechanisms constraining the distribution of these species. The physiological energetics of each of the three …
