Relationships between plant species richness and grazing intensity in a semiarid ecosystem
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Plant species richness is an important property of ecosystems that is altered by grazing. In a semiarid environment, we tested the hypotheses that (1) small‐scale herbaceous plant species richness declines linearly with increasing grazing intensity by ...

Herbaceous vegetation communities around lake Manyara, Tanzania: response to environmental gradients
Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2020 Healthy populations of wildlife require quality forage sufficiently available in both space and time. The herbaceous vegetation around rift valley lakes in Tanzania varies along productivity, disturbance and stress gradients.

Can grazing by elk and bison stimulate herbaceous plant productivity in semiarid ecosystems?
Ecosphere, 2022 Plant communities in rangeland ecosystems vary widely in the degree to which they can compensate for losses to herbivores. Ecosystem‐level factors have been proposed to affect this compensatory capacity, including timing and intensity of grazing, and ...

Botanical Knowledge and its Differentiation by Age, Gender and Ethnicity in Southwestern Niger [PDF]
, 2008 Indigenous knowledge is unevenly distributed. Individual knowledge level may be affected by many factors such as gender, age, ethnicity, profession, religious and cultural beliefs, abundance and usefulness of the species.

Living Close to Your Neighbors: The Importance of Both Competition and Facilitation in Plant Communities [PDF]
, 2014 Recent work has demonstrated that competition and facilitation likely operate jointly in plant communities, but teasing out the relative role of each has proven difficult.
