FOR891_sp08e heterotroph: SP08e Diversity and functional effects of herbivores, predators and saproxyl...
Description:
Herbivores have been suggested as important drivers of tree diversity in phytodiverse
forests. Our herbivory census with BEF China revealed a positive herbivory-plant diversity
relationship in the CSPs. This indicates that resource-concentration...

FOR891_sp08c litter as habitat: SP08c Litter layer as microhabitats: how is species diversity determined?
Description:
Litter layer is an important issue when we want to study biodiversity in a forest ecosystem as
a whole. It connects community components above and below ground and is closely related
to many different ecological processes and functions in forest...

FOR891_sp09c termites: SP09c Termite diversity and ground food webs in relation to decomposition in...
Description:
The accumulation and decomposition of wood and leaf litter in the forests have been
extensively studied and reviewed in the world. Grazing of dead wood and plant litter by soil
invertebrates are highly dominated by termites and ants, constitutin...

FOR891_sp11e invasibility: SP11e The interplay of herbaceous and woody species richness: impacts on inv...
Description:
This subproject studies the interactions between tree layer diversity, herb layer diversity and
invasibility in subtropical China. In the first phase of BEF China we focused on characteristics
of the herb layer (1) as response variable to tree l...

Description:
Root traits are critical for nutrient uptake in nutrient-poor environments. For phosphorus (P)-
poor subtropical forests of BEF-China, important research questions are how root
morphological and physiological traits have adapted to low P conditi...
