Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Invaded sites had lower species richness than uninvaded controls at all measured scales.
- Observation Species area curves at invaded sites did not converge with controls.
- Intervention effect Overall differences among clearing treatments were nonsignificant.
- Intervention effect Burn standing caused the least change in vegetation variables.
- Intervention effect Fell, remove and burn caused greater vegetation changes.
- Intervention effect Fell and burn caused greater vegetation changes.
- Intervention effect Fell and burn had the greatest negative effect on guild survival.
- Intervention effect Non-mycorrhizal graminoids persisted relatively well after fell and burn.
- Recommendation The authors urge intervention before dense invasion.
- Recommendation The authors urge effective biological control to slow invasive species spread.
