On the combined effect of soil fertility and topography on tree growth in subtropical forest ecosystems - a study from SE China
Abstract:
Aims
The aim of our research was to understand small-scale effects of topography and soil fertility on tree growth in a forest biodiversity and ecosystem functioning (BEF) experiment in subtropical SE China.
Methods
Geomorphometric terrain an...

Leaf area increases with species richness in young experimental stands of subtropical trees
Abstract:
Aims
Most biodiversity–ecosystem functioning research has been carried out in grassland ecosystems, and little is known about whether forest ecosystems, in particular outside the temperate zone, respond similarly. Here, we tested whether the prod...

Effects of ectomycorrhizal fungal identity and diversity on subtropical tree competition
Abstract:
Aims
Mycorrhizal fungi can influence plant nutrient uptake and therefore may alter interspecific plant competition. However, the role of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi on interspecific plant competition in subtropical forests is poorly understood. In...

Species and genetic diversity of leaf litter affect its decomposition in subtropical broadleaved forest in southern China
Abstract:
Aims
Litter decomposition is a fundamental process of ecosystem functioning, which is largely dependent on biodiversity of the ecosystems. We explored the effects of species diversity and genetic diversity of litter on its decomposition rate.

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 ...
