The paradox of forest fragmentation genetics.
- A. Kramer, Jennifer L Ison, M. Ashley, H. Howe
- Biology, Medicine
- Conservation biology : the journal of the Society…
- 1 August 2008
Theory predicts widespread loss of genetic diversity from drift and inbreeding in trees subjected to habitat fragmentation, yet empirical support of this theory is scarce. We argue that population… Expand
Managing Species Diversity in Tallgrass Prairie: Assumptions and Implications
- H. Howe
- Geography
- 1 September 1994
Conservation and restoration ecology efforts may conserve or restore a particular image of a community, a variety of plausible images, or maximum biological diversity. The choice is a policy decision… Expand
Early Consequences of Seed Dispersal for a Neotropical Tree (Virola surinamensis)
- H. Howe, E. Schupp, L. C. Westley
- Biology
- 1 June 1985
We examined the effects of distance from a fruiting conspecific, light environment, and initial seed size on survivorship using Virola surinamensis seeds and seedlings placed in concentric rings… Expand
Response of Early‐ and Late‐Flowering Plants to Fire Season in Experimental Prairies
- H. Howe
- Biology
- 1 February 1994
Fire maintains tallgrass prairies, but fire season is virtually unexplored as a formative influence of prairie floristics. Replicated mid—July burns, simulating the peak of lightning—caused fire in… Expand
When Seed Dispersal Matters
Abstract A profusion of fruit forms implies that seed dispersal plays a central role in plant ecology, yet the chance that an individual seed will ultimately produce a reproductive adult is low to… Expand
Characterization of highly variable (GA/CT)n microsatellites in the bur oak, Quercus macrocarpa
The objective of this study was to ascertain the usefulness of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based microsatellite analysis for studying pollination and parentage in a wind-pollinated temperate… Expand
Episodic death across species of desert shrubs.
- M. Miriti, Susana Rodríguez-Buritica, S. Wright, H. Howe
- Biology, Medicine
- Ecology
- 2007
Extreme events shape population and community trajectories. We report episodic mortality across common species of thousands of long-lived perennials individually tagged and monitored for 20 years in… Expand
Arrival and Survival in Tropical Treefall Gaps
- E. Schupp, H. Howe, C. Augspurger, D. Levey
- Biology
- 1 June 1989
Most tropical tree species require light from a treefall gap at some time during their lives to reach maturity. Responses to light conditions have been dichotomized as shade-intolerant pioneers or… Expand
EGG SIZE, HATCHING ASYNCHRONY, SEX, AND BROOD REDUCTION IN THE COMMON GRACKLE'
- H. Howe
- Biology
- 1 November 1976
In clutches of five, the Common Grackle (Quiscalus quiscula) provisions eggs un- equally and starts incubation before the clutch is complete, thereby insuring initial advantages to some young which… Expand
Scatter-and clump-dispersal and seedling demography: hypothesis and implications
- H. Howe
- Biology, Medicine
- Oecologia
- 1 May 1989
SummaryFruit-eating animals deposit viable seeds in patterns that determine the conditions under which seeds and seedlings live or die. Many tree species are scatter-dispersed by birds, bats, or… Expand
