Integrating plant richness in forest patches can rescue overall biodiversity in human-modified landscapes

2017-08-01

Abstract excerpt

The substitution of natural ecosystems with agriculture has led to the establishment of human-modified landscapes globally. In some tropical regions, this process is decades-old, allowing for the study of the effect of such modifications on the remaining biodiversity. However, unlike forest fragments inside regions with extensive primary coverage, the conservation value of ecosystems embedded within intensive farm...
