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...

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...

Seasonal characteristics and determinants of tree growth in a Chinese subtropical forest

Abstract:
Aims 18 To quantify the seasonal differences in effects of leaf habit, species identity, initial diameter, neighborhood interaction and stand environment on tree absolute diameter growth rates in a subtropical forest in China. Methods We used m...

Soil respiration is driven by fine root biomass along a forest chronosequence in subtropical China

Abstract:
Aims Soil respiration (Rs) is a major process controlling soil carbon loss in forest ecosystems. However, the underlying mechanisms leading to variation in Rs along forest successional gradients are not well understood. In this study, we investig...

Aenictus hoelldobleri sp. n., a new species of the Aenictus ceylonicus group (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) from China, with a key to the Chinese A. ceylonicus group species

Abstract:
Aenictus is the most species-rich genus of army ants in the subfamily Dorylinae and one of the most species rich ant genera in China and the World. In this paper a new species of the Aenictus ceylonicus group, Aenictus hoelldobleri Staab sp. n., i...
