Earlier research has established a number of relationships between community structure and plant traits. However, these relationships are mediated by demographic processes that are constrained, but not determined, by the trait values, and involv[...]

1. Understanding the many factors that affect community composition and coexistence of species in natural environments is one of the central goals in ecology. As germination and establishment of seedlings in orchids are crucially dependent on my[...]

Both plant species diversity and genetic diversity within a plant species can affect community properties and ecosystem processes. However, the relative contribution of species diversity and genetic diversity to ecosystem functioning is poorly k[...]

Grime's CSR and Tilman's resource-ratio theories are two major contributions to our understanding of plant community dynamics. They have both been corroborated empirically, whilst providing several contradictory predictions. Notably, contrary to[...]

Local plant community assembly is influenced by a series of filters that affect the recruitment and establishment of species. These filters include regional factors that limit seeds of any given species from reaching a local site as well as loca[...]

Abadie et al., Journal of Ecology, 99, 2011, 1134 claim that landscape disturbance causes small-scale functional homogenization but limited taxonomic homogenization. This statement does not seem to accurately summarize their results. Abadie et a[...]

Accelerating rates of biodiversity loss may result in a rapid decline in important ecosystem processes such as carbon capture. Whether extirpation-resistant species compensate for the decline in ecosystem processes associated with the loss of ex[...]

In forest ecosystems, canopy trees provide a large amount of floral resources for pollinators but flower production fluctuates highly from year to year. Temporal variation in floral resources may influence the population dynamics of pollinators.[...]

Niche differentiation is a key issue in the current debate on community assembly mechanisms. In highly diverse moist tropical forests, tree species sensitivity to canopy openness is thought to be a major axis in niche differentiation. In the pas[...]

Biotic resistance is a commonly invoked hypothesis to explain why most exotic plant species naturalize at low abundance. Although numerous studies have documented negative impacts of native consumers on exotic plant performance, longer-term mult[...]
