METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------

1. Description of methods used for collection/generation of data: 
We conducted a literature search using the core collection of ISI Web of Science on April 19, 2017 with keywords seed*, restoration, native, invas*, exotic, and revegetation. Of the results, we considered only field experiments where IPS had been mechanically removed, or chemically treated prior to seed addition or planting of native species. Furthermore, studies had to report a metric of IPS abundance (e.g., cover) in both revegetated and not-revegetated areas following invasive control. Through this process, we identified 40 studies that tested the ability of revegetation to reduce invasion following IPS mechanical removal or chemical control.

2. Describe any quality-assurance procedures performed on the data: Data were checked in triplicate to ensure accuracy to referenced literature

3. People involved with sample collection, processing, analysis and/or submission: Michael Schuster, Peter Wragg, Peter Reich
