Positive effects of tree species richness on fine-root production in a subtropical forest in SE-China

Abstract:
Aims Fine roots play an important role in the biogeochemical cycles of terrestrial ecosystems and are vital for understanding forest ecosystem functioning and services. Higher plant species diversity has been largely reported to increase abovegro...

Inter- and intraspecific variation in specific root length drives aboveground biodiversity effects in young experimental forest stands

Abstract:
Aims Although the net biodiversity effect (NE) can be statistically partitioned into complementarity and selection effects (CE and SE), there are different underlying mechanisms that can cause a certain partitioning. Our objective was to assess t...

Impact of tree diversity and environmental conditions on the survival of shrub species in a forest biodiversity experiment in subtropical China

Abstract:
Aims Although shrubs are an important component of forests, their role has not yet been considered in forest biodiversity experiments. In the biodiversity–ecosystem functioning (BEF) experiment with subtropical tree species in south-east China (...

Limited tree richness effects on herb layer composition, richness and productivity in experimental forest stands

Abstract:
Aims In forests, the herbaceous understory vegetation plays an important role for ecosystem functioning as it represents a significant component of total aboveground productivity. In addition, the herb layer contributes to overall forest species ...

Tree diversity and nectar composition affect arthropod visitors on extrafloral nectaries in a diversity experiment

Abstract:
Aims Plants with extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) are common in tropical and subtropical habitats and, despite many other arthropods also forage for extrafloral nectar, most studies solely focused on the defense mutualisms between EFN plants and ants...

Genetic diversity and differentiation follow secondary succession in a multi-species study on woody plants from subtropical China

Abstract:
Aims: Species diversity and genetic diversity may be affected in parallel by similar environmental drivers. However, genetic diversity may also be affected independently by habitat characteristics. We aim at disentangling relationships between g...
