Inferring community assembly mechanisms from functional and phylogenetic diversity: The relative contribution of environmental filtering decreases along a sand desertification gradient in a desert steppe community

Land Degradation and Development, 2021
The stress‐dominance hypothesis (SDH) predicts that environmental filtering will dominate in harsh habitats, while limiting similarity is more important in favourable environments.
