Response of specific leaf area to light: comparative study of a large species set

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Specific leaf area (SLA) is a commonly used proxy for the leaf economy spectrum in plants, separating species with low‐cost leaves (in terms of carbon) with short lifespan and hence fast turnover from species with high‐cost and long‐lived leaves. While SLA is used mainly for interspecific comparisons, it also varies within species both ontogenetically ...

Is a plant truly plastic? Nutrients and neighbours induce trait‐specific responses, but performance depends on response direction

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Plants live in a heterogeneous world, where nutrient and neighbour distributions vary in space and time. Plants can respond to this variation through plastic responses in individual organs, which are assumed to be coordinated among traits to support a coherent, adaptive strategy, maintaining plant growth in varying environments.
