Can soil acidity and light help to explain tree species effects on forest herb layer performance in post-agricultural forests?
Tree species affect herb layer species through their effects on soil quality and light regime but their relative importance and interactions are insufficiently known.

Effects of two contrasting hemiparasitic plant species on biomass production and nitrogen availability
Hemiparasitic plants can substantially change plant community structure; the drainage of host resources has a direct negative effect on host biomass and, as a consequence, promotes non-host biomass production ...

Former land use affects the nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations and biomass of forest herbs
The colonization rates of understorey plants into forests growing on former agricultural land differ remarkably among species. Different dispersal and recruitment largely account for the contrasting colonizati...
