The research contained herein investigated how these factors interact to influence exotic plant invasions. In the Northeastern United States, the highly abundant native white tailed deer ( Zimm.), and landscape fragmentation are known to facilitate plant invasion independently. At the same time, ...
Biotic homogenization, with its emphasis on invasions, extinctions, and convergence in taxonomic similarity, provides an important framework for investigating changes in biodiversity across scales. Through their selective foraging, large populations of white-tailed deer are altering population sizes, driving ...
Through their selective foraging, large populations of white-tailed deer are altering population sizes, driving extirpations, and facilitating invasions of plants throughout the eastern United States. I tested the hypothesis that they can also drive biotic homogenization in forest understory communities. ...
White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) can substantially affect the structure and species composition of a forest. The tolerance of a forest community to browsing may vary by type as a result of varying biotic and abiotic factors of the environment. To date, no studies have compared the ...
The influence of white-tailed deerand landscape composition and structure on exotic plant success.Plant communities are shaped by a variety of interacting factors including geographic constraints, abiotic, and biotic factors. The research contained herein investigated how these factors interact to influence...
