Plant Diversity Enhances Soil Fungal Diversity and Microbial Resistance to Plant Invasion [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2021 Our study newly showed that plant invasion significantly altered relationships between aboveground and belowground diversity. Specifically, plant richness indirectly promoted soil fungal richness through the increase of soil total carbon (TC) without plant invasion, while plant richness had a direct positive effect on soil fungal richness under plant ...

Herbivores and Plant Diversity
The American Naturalist, 1992We study spatial lottery models of competition between two plant species in which competitive ability is affected by levels of herbivory. Herbivory may enhance plant diversity in two qualitatively different ways. The first is global frequency dependence; the level of herbivory suffered by a plant decreases as the species becomes rare.

Phytochemical diversity drives plant–insect community diversity [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2015 Significance Phytochemical diversity is a key component of functional diversity. Challenges in quantifying phytochemical diversity have limited our understanding of the causes and consequences of variation in phytochemical diversity across plant species and families.

Ethnomedicinal plant diversity in Thailand
Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2018Plants have provided medicine to humans for thousands of years, and in most parts of the world people still use traditional plant-derived medicine. Knowledge related to traditional use provides an important alternative to unavailable or expensive western medicine in many rural communities.

Cenozoic Plant Diversity in the Neotropics
Science, 2006Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the high levels of plant diversity in the Neotropics today, but little is known about diversification patterns of Neotropical floras through geological time. Here, we present the longest time series compiled for palynological plant diversity of the Neotropics (15 stratigraphic sections, 1530 samples ...

The emergence of diversity in plant communities
Comptes Rendus de l'Académie des Sciences - Series III - Sciences de la Vie, 2000The diversity of functional forms and strategies in plant communities is essential to the maintenance of the services that ecosystems provide humanity, and ultimately to the homeostasis of the biosphere. This diversity emerges from evolutionary forces operating at lower levels; these exploit the opportunities for specialization presented by exogenous ...
