Global variability in leaf respiration in relation to climate, plant functional types and leaf traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
-Leaf dark respiration (Rdark) is an important yet poorly quantified component of the global carbon cycle. Given this, we analyzed a new global database of Rdark and associated leaf traits.

Plant traits and their role in determining forest community structure along a soil fertility gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Previous studies have shown that changes in community composition in mature kauri forests are driven by topographical gradients. The extent to which functional traits influence the patterns detected in these forests has not been well-studied. The overall

Plant Nutrient Contents Rather Than Physical Traits Are Coordinated Between Leaves and Roots in a Desert Shrubland

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Although leaf economics spectrum (LES) has been extensively tested with regional and global datasets, the correlation among functional traits of desert plants remains largely unclear.

Role of plant functional traits in determining vegetation composition of abandoned grazing land in north-eastern Victoria, Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Question: In the Northern Hemisphere, species with dispersal limitations are typically absent from secondary forests. In Australia, little is known about dispersal mechanisms and other traits that drive species composition within post-agricultural ...

Plant neighbourhood diversity effects on leaf traits: a meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
1. Leaf traits often vary with plant neighbourhood composition, which in turn may mediate plant susceptibility to herbivory. However, it is unknown whether there are any common patterns of change in leaf trait expression in response to neighbourhood ...

Low predictability of energy balance traits and leaf temperature metrics in desert, montane and alpine plant communities

open access: yes, 2020
1. Leaf energy balance may influence plant performance and community composition. While biophysical theory can link leaf energy balance to many traits and environment variables, predicting leaf temperature and key driver traits with incomplete ...

Effects of grazing on leaf traits and ecosystem functioning in Inner Mongolia grasslands: scaling from species to community [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2010
Understanding the mechanistic links between environmental drivers, human disturbance, plant functional traits, and ecosystem properties is a fundamental aspect of biodiversity-ecosystem functioning research.

Insight into the genetic components of community genetics: QTL mapping of insect association in a fast-growing forest tree [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Identifying genetic sequences underlying insect associations on forest trees will improve the understanding of community genetics on a broad scale. We tested for genomic regions associated with insects in hybrid poplar using quantitative trait loci (QTL)
