“Realistic strategies” and neutral processes drive the community assembly based on leaf functional traits in a subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest
Abstract:We sought to assess effect of plant environmental adaptation strategies
and evolutionary history and quantify the contribution of ecological
processes to community assembly by measuring functional traits and
phylogenetic composition in local forest community. We selected 18
dominant tree species in a Lithocarpus glaber–Cyclobalanopsis glauca
evergreen broad-leaved forest and measured nine leaf functional traits
and phylogenetic data of each species. We analyzed the variation in
traits and trade-off relationshi… Show more

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
