Talk:Banksia scabrella

Lit search
As requested, here's a list of the few results that came up in the ISI Web of Knowledge, and JSTOR. I haven't checked the papers themselves, so most will probably be of little relevance. Good luck! Sasata (talk) 15:17, 11 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Title: Does phenotypic plasticity in carboxylate exudation differ among rare and widespread Banksia species (Proteaceae)?
 * Author(s): Denton, MD; Veneklaas, EJ; Lambers, H
 * Source: NEW PHYTOLOGIST  Volume: 173   Issue: 3   Pages: 592-599   Published:  2007
 * This is a very dry paper. Esoteric but interesting. I need to think about how to add. Casliber (talk · contribs) 15:00, 18 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Title: Banksia. A spectacular group from Western Australia.
 * Author(s): Blake, T.
 * Source: Australian Plants  Volume: 15   Issue: 124   Pages: 351-358   Published:  1990
 * Nice photos in this. Trevor does say the species was originally collected by Mueller in 1877 but I have seen nothing from Alex George about it, and Alex would usually have something like this recorded. Weird. Will look further. Casliber (talk · contribs) 15:05, 18 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Biogeography of Banksia in Southwestern Australia
 * Byron B. Lamont, S. W. Connell
 * Journal of Biogeography, Vol. 23, No. 3 (May, 1996), pp. 295-309


 * Assessing the Risk of Invasive Success in Pinus and Banksia in South African Mountain Fynbos
 * D. M. Richardson, R. M. Cowling, D. C. Le Maitre
 * Journal of Vegetation Science, Vol. 1, No. 5 (Dec., 1990), pp. 629-642
 * Acknowledges increasing use of cut flower banksia crops in fynbos and goes on to discuss. At the end of the paper is a table listing attributes of all species of banksias. scabrella gets one line like all others. I can't see it being cultivated in the fynbos. very hypothetical.

 * The Evolutionary Ecology of Sprouting in Woody Plants The Evolutionary Ecology of Sprouting in Woody Plants
 * William J. Bond, Jeremy J. Midgley

 * "'scabrella mentioned in the big cladistic tree replicated out of Mast and Givnish. Paper only talks very generally about sprouting/nonsprouting banksias.Maybe something tangential I can add but will be tangential Casliber (talk · contribs) 14:52, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Sob. this is an american article which mentions a Festuca scabrella in the body of the article, and banksia in the references. Casliber (talk · contribs) 14:48, 18 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Cas, I've emailed you 1, 4, 5 and 6. I can scan a hardcopy of 2 if you want. I assume you have 3 already. Hesperian 23:51, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, 2 & 3 I have. Thanks Sasata. I am impressed :) Casliber (talk · contribs) 00:33, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

last thing to do...
Is chase down this....then I think it is as comprehensive as it possibly can be. Casliber (talk · contribs) 02:20, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
