Shrub facilitation increases plant diversity along an arid scrubland-temperate rain forest boundary in South America por Zonneveld, M.J. van, Gutiérrez, J.R., Holmgren, M.

“…We studied the role of nurse facilitation on the recruitment of perennial plants along an arid scrubland–temperate rain forest boundary to test the following predictions: (1) nurse shrub canopy increases seedling abundance and species richness along the rain forest–scrubland boundary; (2) scrubland species are less dependent on facilitative interactions than temperate rain forest species, especially at the moister, upper end of the gradient.Bosque Fray Jorge National Park, north‐central Chile, South America (30° 39′ S – 71° 40′ W).We examined seedling abundance and species richness of perennial plants in the open and under different types of patches that may facilitate species recruitment (living shrubs, dead shrubs, perennial grasses and trees) along an arid scrubland–temperate rain forest boundary. …”
