New opportunities for grassland species in warming temperate winters

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Temperate winters are getting warmer, the length of the growing season is increasing and mid‐winter fluctuations of warm and freezing temperatures are more frequent. Although typically winter dormant, some herbaceous perennials can maintain or grow green leaves during ...

From low to high elevations, flowers adapt traits and phenology to climate, but phenology‐trait relationships weak

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flowering phenology is central to plant reproductive success and can relate to morphological traits such as size and quality of flowers, but phenology–trait associations of flowers remain unclear.

Seed dormancy explains plant response to mass mortality events

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mass mortality events (MMEs) are large‐scale, rapid die‐offs resulting in extreme inputs of carrion biomass. Recent work demonstrates the effects of increasing carrion biomass on plant communities modulated by vertebrate scavengers and herbivores.

Seasonal nitrogen enrichment alters plant community stability–area relationship through decreased biodiversity, species asynchrony, and population stability

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition generally reduces the temporal stability of plant communities (community stability). The positive community stability–area relationship (CSAR) has been reported, but the effects of N deposition on CSAR are unexplored, particularly ...

Extending plant water‐use strategies to flowers: Evidence from trait correlations across plant organs

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Despite the importance of flowers to plant fitness, it remains unclear whether flowers display ecophysiological strategies and how floral traits are associated with leaf economic traits.
