Mammal defaunation leads to biotic homogenization of plant communities in tropical rainforests. [PDF]
EcologyAbstract Biotic homogenization is the process in which species communities become increasingly similar across different regions over time. This phenomenon has substantial ecological, evolutionary, and economic implications, primarily driven by human activities such as habitat destruction, invasive species introduction, and climate change.
