Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation For adult Aster, facilitation exceeded competition for two of three matrix species, yielding net positive interactions.
- Observation Net and component effects did not vary significantly among matrix species.
- Intervention effect Seedling mortality reached 100% when neighbors were removed.
- Observation Matrix grasses and rushes had largely redundant positive net effects on Aster performance across its life cycle.
