Interactions count: plant origin, herbivory and disturbance jointly explain seedling recruitment and community structure
Abstract Herbivory and disturbance are major drivers of biological invasions, but it is unclear how they interact to determine exotic vs. native seedling recruitment and what consequences arise for biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Previous studies neglected the roles of different, potentially...
