Species-specific effects of genetic diversity and species diversity of experimental communities on early tree performance

Abstract:
Aims Changing biodiversity can affect ecosystem functioning. However, the role of genetic diversity within species, relative to the one of species diversity, has hardly been addressed. Methods To address the effects of both genetic diversity an...

Heritability of early growth traits and their plasticity in 14 woody species of Chinese subtropical forest

Abstract:
Aims Genetic variation in plant traits represents the raw material for future adaptive evolution. Its extent can be estimated as heritability based on the performance of experimental plants of known relatedness, such as maternal half-sib seed fa...

Opposing intra vs. interspecific diversity effects on herbivory and growth in subtropical experimental tree assemblages

Abstract:
Aims: Positive plant diversity-ecosystem function relations are ultimately driven by variation in functional traits among individuals that form a community. To date, research has largely focused on the role of species diversity for ecosystem fun...

Effect of clear-cutting silviculture on soil respiration in a subtropical forest of China

Abstract:
Aims Clear-cutting is a common forest management practice, especially in subtropical China. However, the potential ecological consequences of clear-cutting remain unclear. In particular, the effect of clear-cutting on soil processes, such as the ...

Tree species, tree genotypes and tree genotypic diversity levels affect microbe-mediated soil ecosystem functions in a subtropical forest

Abstract:
Tree species identity and tree genotypes contribute to the shaping of soil microbial communities. However, knowledge about how these two factors influence soil ecosystem functions is still lacking. Furthermore, in forest ecosystems tree genotypes ...

Tree Diversity Enhances Stand Carbon Storage but Not Leaf Area in a Subtropical Forest

Abstract:
Research about biodiversity–productivity relationships has focused on herbaceous ecosystems, with results from tree field studies only recently beginning to emerge. Also, the latter are concentrated largely in the temperate zone. Tree species dive...
