Do Invasive Earthworms Affect the Functional Traits of Native Plants? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
As ecosystem engineers, invasive earthworms are one of the main drivers of plant community changes in North American forests previously devoid of earthworms.

Characterizing the plant functional traits of coffee agroecosystems in Indonesia. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Plant Sci
Indonesia, the world’s third-largest coffee producer, is rapidly expanding coffee agroecosystems, often at the expense of deforestation. Understanding the ecophysiology of coffee agroecosystems is thus critical for assessing their impacts on the regional carbon cycle.

Linking plant conservatism scores to plant functional traits

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2020
Abstract Many indices to assess ecosystem health involve conservatism scores (C-scores), which are assigned to individual plant species by expert regional botanists and are intended to provide a semi-quantitative metric of a species’ tolerance to environmental perturbation.

Intraspecific Variation in Functional Traits of Medicago sativa Determine the Effect of Plant Diversity and Nitrogen Addition on Flowering Phenology in a One-Year Common Garden Experiment

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Nitrogen deposition and biodiversity alter plant flowering phenology through abiotic factors and functional traits. However, few studies have considered their combined effects on flowering phenology.

ANALYSIS OF FUNCTIONAL LEAF TRAIT VARIATION AMONG THE DOMINANT UNDERSTOREY SPECIES IN THE PINE FOREST OF MORNI HILLS, PANCHKULA, HARYANA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Life Science, 2021
The functionaldiversity is an essential concept in the field of ecology. It refers to the relative abundance, range, and value of the functional traits present in a given community or ecosystem.

FunAndes – A functional trait database of Andean plants

open access: yesScientific Data, 2022
AbstractWe introduce the FunAndes database, a compilation of functional trait data for the Andean flora spanning six countries. FunAndes contains data on 24 traits across 2,694 taxa, for a total of 105,466 entries. The database features plant-morphological attributes including growth form, and leaf, stem, and wood traits measured at the species or ...

Interactive Effects of Climate and Large Herbivore Assemblage Drive Plant Functional Traits and Diversity. [PDF]

open access: yesPlants (Basel)
Large herbivore communities are changing globally, with populations of wild herbivores generally declining while domestic herbivore populations are increasing, influencing ecosystem function along with the impacts of climate change.

A functional trait perspective on plant invasion [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2012
Global environmental change will affect non-native plant invasions, with profound potential impacts on native plant populations, communities and ecosystems. In this context, we review plant functional traits, particularly those that drive invader abundance (invasiveness) and impacts, as well as the integration of these traits across multiple ecological
