Functional and phylogenetic dissimilarity of woody plants drive insect herbivory in highly diverse forests

Abstract:
The degree of herbivore damage a plant species experiences has been shown to often be affected by the density of conspecific plant neighbors. However, host spectra of many herbivores often comprise a suite of related plant species, and generalist ...

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...

Harmonizing, annotating, and sharing data in biodiversity-ecosystem functioning research

Abstract:
1. The new, integrative research field of biodiversity – ecosystem functioning (BEF) depends on close collaboration between researchers from different disciplines working on different scales in time, space, as well as taxon resolution. Data can de...

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...

Horizontal, but not vertical canopy structure is related to stand functional diversity in a subtropical slope forest (DOI: 10.1007/s11284-011-0887-3

Abstract:
In biodiversity research, niche complementarity is seen as one mechanism with which species coexistence is maintained. Niche complementarity also results in a more efficient use of the total resource pool, and thus, species-rich communities should...
