To synthesize the breadth of concepts and approaches used to concurrently study niche and positive plant interactions in deserts, we conducted a formalized systematic review. in early 2018, we conducted a search of the peer-reviewed literature using the Web of Science with the following terms: “niche“ AND (“plant facilitat*” OR “nurse plant” OR “positive interact*) AND (“arid” OR “desert”). After removing duplicates, the following data were extracted to categorize the studies. The code and full list of studies are provided on GitHub: https://cjlortie.github.io/desert.niche.facilitation/
