COMMON ECTOMYCORRHIZAL NETWORKS MAY MAINTAIN MONODOMINANCE IN A TROPICAL RAIN FOREST [PDF]
Ecology, 2007 Most tropical rain forests contain diverse arrays of tree species that form arbuscular mycorrhizae. In contrast, the less common monodominant rain forests, in which one tree species comprises more than 50% of the canopy, frequently contain ectomycorrhizal (ECM) associates.

Anthropogenic seed dispersal: rethinking the origins of plant domestication
, 2020 It is well documented that ancient sickle harvesting led to tough rachises, but the other seed dispersal properties in crop progenitors are rarely discussed. The first steps toward domestication are evolutionary responses for the recruitment of humans as

Is the Peltogyne gracilipes monodominant forest characterised by distinct soils?
Acta Oecologica, 2017 Abstract Various explanations have been put forward for monodominance in otherwise diverse tropical forests. This study assesses if the monodominance of Peltogyne gracilipes on Maraca Island in the northern Amazon can be related to edaphic factors. The basal area of P.
