Growing evidence suggests that plant–soil interactions have important implications for plant community composition. However, the role of phylogenetic relatedness in governing interactions between plants and soil biota...

Influences of nitrogen, phosphorus and silicon addition on plant productivity and species richness in an alpine meadow
Fertilization, especially with nitrogen (N), increases aboveground primary productivity (APP), but reduces plant species richness at some level. Silicon (Si) fertilization alone, or with addition of nitrogen or...
Spatial and temporal functional changes in alpine summit vegetation are driven by increases in shrubs and graminoids
Classical approaches to investigating temporal and spatial changes in community composition offer only partial insight into the ecology that drives species distribution, community patterns and processes, whereas a...
Methods for analysing the response of vegetation to land use
Methods for analysing the response of vegetation to land use The assessment of ecological gradients and functional composition of plant communities will affect subsequent predictions as to how those communities will...
