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 (...

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...

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...

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.

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...

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...
