High species turnover and low intraspecific trait variation in endemic and non-endemic plant species assemblages on an oceanic island [PDF]

, 2022
Questions: Both species turnover and intraspecific trait variation can affect plant assemblage dynamics along environmental gradients. Here, we asked how community assemblage patterns in relation to species turnover and intraspecific variation differ ...

Intraspecific trait variation and community assembly in old-field grasslands [PDF]

, 2014
Trait-based approaches are increasingly used in plant community ecology, but previous research has largely ignored functional trait variation within species.

Just how big is intraspecific trait variation in basidiomycete fungal fruit bodies? [PDF]

, 2020
As the use of functional trait approaches is growing in fungal ecology, there is a corresponding need to understand trait variation. Much of trait theory and statistical techniques are built on the assumption that interspecific variation is larger than ...

Intraspecific Behavioral Variation Mediates Insect Prey Survival via Direct and Indirect Effects

Diversity, 2020
Conspecific individuals often exhibit behavioral differences that influence susceptibility to predation. Yet, how such trait differences scale to affect prey population regulation and community structure remains unclear.

Intraspecific trait changes have large impacts on community functional composition but do not affect ecosystem function [PDF]

, 2021
Plant functional traits can provide a mechanistic understanding of community responses to global change and of community effects on ecosystem functions.

Trait variation and functional diversity maintenance of understory herbaceous species coexisting along an elevational gradient in Yulong Mountain, Southwest China

Plant Diversity, 2016
Characterizing trait variation across different ecological scales in plant communities has been viewed as a way to gain insights into the mechanisms driving species coexistence.

Human-Mediated Land Use Change Drives Intraspecific Plant Trait Variation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
In the Anthropocene, more than three quarters of ice-free land has experienced some form of human-driven habitat modification, with agriculture dominating 40% of the Earth’s surface.

Grazing and nitrogen addition link to plant aboveground biomass through intraspecific trait variation, rather than through interspecific trait variation or species richness

Global Ecology and Conservation
Grazing and nitrogen deposition are key global change factors affecting grassland ecosystem functions, yet their ecological pathways influencing plant aboveground biomass (AGB) remain unclear.
