Information about the plots in the Main Experiment: tree and shrub species richness (data from Z1), community composition (data from Z1), species presence/absence data, and plots that should be excluded for analysis at plot and species levels (e.g...

We sampled trophobioses from 29 May to 31 July 2014 and 11 September to 8 October on site A and B dayly alternating between sites (for data on Site B see dataset 567). We selected in total 150 plots from tree diversity level 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 at ...

While diversity-invasibility relationships have often been addressed in experimental grassland communities, experimental approaches in forests are less common, especially in species-rich subtropical regions. Forest ecosystems feature higher comple...

The data sharing agreement is part of the BEF China proposal. This pdf extracts the two pages on data sharing. The paper proposal procedure is drafted along the data sharing agreement.

Leaf damage by insect herbivores can severely affect the growth and fitness of plants and is considered to play an important role in the maintenance of high tree diversity in (sub)tropical forests. The trees of the main experimental plantations of...
