This legacy, in turn, affected the composition and diversity of understory plant communities. The more intense silvicultural treatments contributed to the persistence of pioneer species better adapted to a wider range of environmental conditions and resulted in a decrease in understory plant community heterogeneity among sites. Conversely, single-tree selection cutting appeared to be the most appropriate silvicultural treatment for maintaining soil functions and heterogeneity of understory plant communities after 20 years; composition and structure being similar to long-undisturbed forests.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong><br \/>\nBeta diversity; Biotic homogenization; Forest succession; Scarification; Soil physico-chemical properties<\/p>\n<div class='altmetric-embed' data-badge-type='donut' data-doi='10.1186\/s13595-022-01152-w'  style='float: right; ' ><\/div>\n<p><strong>Publication<\/strong><br \/>\nJaeger, R., Delagrange, S., Aubin, I. et al.
