Ephemeral gilgai wetlands of the stony-plains of arid Australia have a relatively high diversity of native plant species and are extensively utilised for livestock grazing. We sampled the standing vegetation (SV) and germinable soil seed bank (SSB) o

1. Study region The Clare Valley region of South Australia. 2. Study focus Continuing extraction of groundwater threatens pools in seasonal and permanent streams. In order to determine this groundwater dependence, the pools and groundwater from corre

Seed dispersal by ants (myrmecochory) can be influenced by changes to ant assemblages resulting from habitat disturbance as well as by differences in disperser behaviour. We investigated the effect of habitat disturbance by fire on the dispersal of s

Soil collected from 38 sites on Kangaroo Island in South Australia, containing small remnants of senescentEucalyptus cneorifolia-dominated mallee, was subject ex situ to both smoke aerosol and heat treatment tosimulate burning. Further soil from a su

Aim Great Artesian Basin (GAB) springs in central Australia support several plant species otherwise not found in the arid zone. Evolutionary theory predicts that isolated populations will experience reductions in gene flow and genetic diversity, and

Prescribed burning is commonly used in the management of fire prone vegetation in order to reduce the occurrence of large-scale wildfires as well as to maintain biodiversity values. We investigated the response and recovery of epigaeic ant communitie

Plant communities dominated by narrow-leaved mallee (Eucalyptus cneorifolia) are almost entirely confined to north-eastern Kangaroo Island, South Australia, an area which has been extensively cleared for agriculture. Consequently, surviving examples

Myrmecochory (seed dispersal by ants) is a common seed dispersal strategy of plants in fire-prone sclerophyll vegetation of Australia, yet there is little understanding of how fire history may influence this seed dispersal mutualism. We investigated

We investigated the relative importance of above- and below-ground competition by reeds ( Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud) on the growth rate of Eriocaulon carsonii F.Muell. subsp. carsonii , an endangered plant threatened by reeds on arte
