Responses of tropical tree seedlings in the forest–savanna boundary to combined effects of grass competition and fire

Biotropica, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 1082-1095, July 2021., 2021
Grass competition could deferentially affect forest and savanna tree seedling growth, with implications for seedling survival in pyrogenic savannas. We tested hypotheses related to these possible differences and found that competition decreased tree seedling growth and root carbohydrate reserves for both forest and savanna seedlings. A history of grass
