Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Hieracium lepidulum invasion varied among plots, with 0–52% cover and a 1.89% mean.
- Observation Plot species richness increased from 2003 to 2009.
- Association Increasing H. lepidulum density was associated with a +0.002 species per year component of richness increase.
- Association Other measured links between H. lepidulum and community attributes were generally not significant.
- Observation The authors conclude H. lepidulum coexists without measurable negative effects on richness, evenness or diversity after six years.
