Above- and belowground interactions drive habitat segregation between two cryptic species of tropical trees

Pizano, Camila; Mangan, Scott A.; Herre, Edward Allen; Eom, Ahn-Heum; Dalling, James W. (2011)

In the lowlands of central Panama, the Neotropical pioneer tree Trema micrantha (sensu lato) exists as two cryptic species: "landslide'' Trema is restricted to landslides and road embankments, while ...
Acclimation of Tropical Tree Seedlings to Excessive Light in Simulated Tree-Fall Gaps

Krause, G. Heinrich; Koroleva, Olga Y.; Dalling, James W.; Winter, Klaus (2001)
Artefacts of the pot environment on soil nutrient availability: implications for the interpretation of ecological studies

Dalling, James W.; Winter, Klaus; Andersen, K. M.; Turner, Benjamin L. (2013)
A Bruchid Beetle and a Viable Seedling From a Single Diaspore of Attalea Butyracea

Harms, Kyle Edward; Dalling, James W. (2000)
Comment on The Response of Vegetation on the Andean Flank in Western Amazonia to Pleistocene Climate Change

Punyasena, Surangi W.; Dalling, James W.; Jaramillo, Carlos A.; Turner, Benjamin L. (2011)

Cárdenas et al. (Reports, 25 February 2011, p. 1055) used the presence of Podocarpus pollen and wood to infer =5°C cooling of Andean forests during Quaternary glacial periods. We show that (i) Podocarpus has a wide elevation ...
Differences in seed germination responses may promote coexistence of four sympatric <i>Piper</i> species

Daws, M. I.; Burslem, David F. R. P.; Crabtree, L. M.; Kirkman, P.; Mullins, C. E.; Dalling, James W. (2002)
Dispersal Patterns and Seed Bank Dynamics of Pioneer Trees in Moist Tropical Forest

Dalling, James W.; Swaine, M. D.; Garwood, Nancy C. (1998)
Diversity, host affinity, and distribution of seed-infecting fungi: a case study with Cecropia

Gallery, Rachel E.; Dalling, James W.; Arnold, Anne Elizabeth (2007)

Recruitment limitation has been proposed as an important mechanism contributing to the maintenance of tropical tree diversity. For pioneer species, infection by fungi significantly reduces seed survival in soil, potentially ...
Do soil microbes and abrasion by soil particles influence persistence and loss of physical dormancy in seeds of tropical pioneers?

Zalamea, Paul-Camilo; Sarmiento, Carolina; Arnold, Anne Elizabeth; Davis, Adam S.; Dalling, James W. (2015)
An ectomycorrhizal nitrogen economy facilitates monodominance in a neotropical forest

Corrales, Adriana; Mangan, Scott A.; Turner, Benjamin L.; Dalling, James W. (2016)
Evidence for arrested succession in a liana-infested Amazonian forest

Tymen, Blaise; Rejou-Mechain, Maxime; Dalling, James W.; Fauset, Sophie; Feldpausch, Ted R.; Norden, Natalia; Phillips, Oliver L.; Turner, Benjamin L.; Viers, Jerome; Chave, Jerome (2016)
Functional significance of photoblastic germination in neotropical pioneer trees: a seed's eye view

Pearson, T. R. H.; Burslem, David F. R. P.; Mullins, C. E.; Dalling, James W. (2003)
Functional traits and the growth-mortality trade-off in tropical trees

Wright, S. Joseph; Kitajima, Kaoru; Kraft, Nathan J. B.; Reich, Peter B.; Wright, Ian J.; Bunker, Daniel E.; Condit, Richard S.; Dalling, James W.; Davies, Stuart James; Diaz, Sandra; Engelbrecht, Bettina M. J.; Harms, Kyle Edward; Hubbell, Stephen P.; Marks, Christian O.; Ruiz-Jaen, Maria C.; Salvador, Cristina M.; Zanne, Amy E. (2010)

A trade-off between growth and mortality rates characterizes tree species in closed canopy forests. This trade-off is maintained by inherent differences among species and spatial variation in light availability caused by ...
Germination Ecology of Neotropical Pioneers: Interacting Effects of Environmental Conditions and Seed Size

Pearson, T. R. H.; Burslem, David F. R. P.; Mullins, Christopher E.; Dalling, James W. (2002)
Germination responses to water potential in Neotropical pioneers suggest large-seeded species take more risks

Daws, Matthew I.; Crabtree, Lora M.; Dalling, James W.; Mullins, Christopher E.; Burslem, David F. R. P. (2008)

Background and Aims: In neotropical forests, very small-seeded pioneer species ( mg seed mass) recruit preferentially in small tree fall gaps and at gap edges, but large-seeded pioneers do not. Since water availability is ...
Habitat partitioning among neotropical pioneers: a consequence of differential susceptibility to browsing herbivores?

Dalling, James W.; Pearson, T. R. H.; Ballesteros, J.; Sanchez, E.; Burslem, David F. R. P. (2009)

Four species of fast-growing pioneer tree species in the genus Cecropia exist in the forests in central Panama. Cecropia insignis is dominant in old-growth forests but absent from nearby secondary forests; C. obtusifolia, ...
Host generalists dominate fungal communities associated with seeds of four neotropical pioneer species

Kluger, Arnold; Dalling, James W.; Gallery, Rachel E.; Sanchez, Evelyn; Weeks-Galindo, Cheyenne; Arnold, Anne Elizabeth (2008)

Most ecological studies of fungi associated with tropical plants have focused on the rhizosphere or phyllosphere of seedlings, saplings and adult trees (Augspurger 1983, 1984; Bell et al. 2006, Gilbert 2002, Gilbert et al. ...
Interactions of Gap Size and Herbivory on Establishment, Growth and Survival of Three Species of Neotropical Pioneer Trees

Pearson, Timothy R. H.; Burslem, David F. R. P.; Goeriz, Rachel E.; Dalling, James W. (2003)
Interference by Iron in the Determination of Boron by ICP-OES in Mehlich-III Extracts and Total Element Digests of Tropical Forest Soils

Turner, Benjamin L.; Bielnicka, Aleksandra W.; Dalling, James W.; Wolf, Jeffrey A. (2016)
Interspecific variation in susceptibility to fungal pathogens in seeds of 10 tree species in the neotropical genus <I>Cecropia</I>

Gallery, Rachel E.; Moore, David J. P.; Dalling, James W. (2010)

1. Species differences in susceptibility to pathogens acting at early life history stages may strongly influence the abundance and distribution of tropical trees. Here, we test the susceptibility of 10 congeners of the ...
