More lianas on larger host trees on steep slopes in a secondary temperate forest, Japan

I Nakada, I Uehara, H Mori - Plant Ecology, 2024 - Springer
Lianas (woody vines) are important components of forest ecosystems and are often found to
proliferate in young forests that have experienced large-scale disturbances. However, little is …

Clonal reproduction as a driver of liana proliferation following large-scale disturbances in temperate forests

H Mori, T Kamijo - bioRxiv, 2024 - biorxiv.org
Large-scale disturbances significantly impact forest dynamics, structure, and biodiversity.
Lianas (woody vines) proliferate rapidly after such events, likely due to clonal reproduction …
