DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16001
Abstract: PREMISE Spatial and temporal resource allocations within inflorescences have been well-studied in many plants based on flowering sequence or floral position. However, there had been few attempts to investigate architectural effects and resource competition in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16021
Abstract: Abstract Premise Although the balance between cross‐ and self‐fertilization is driven by the environment, no long‐term study has documented whether anthropogenic climate change is affecting reproductive strategy allocation in species with mixed mating systems. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.2802
Abstract: Abstract Phenotypes can both evolve in response to, and affect, ecosystem change, but few examples of diverging ecosystem‐effect traits have been investigated. Bony armor traits of fish are good candidates for this because they evolve… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3866
Abstract: Abstract While mowing‐induced changes in plant traits and their effects on ecosystem functioning in semi‐arid grassland are well studied, the relations between plant size and nutrient strategies are largely unknown. Mowing may drive the shifts… read more here.

Why can't we make research grant allocation systems more consistent? A personal opinion
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4855
Abstract: Abstract Uncertainty is expected to enter into our grant allocation processes at many points, not limited to those directly involving assessment by peers. The selection of grants for funding is thus prodigiously low in statistical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2828
Abstract: Elucidating the variation of allocation pattern of ecosystem net primary productivity (NPP) and its underlying mechanisms are critically important for understanding the changes of aboveground and belowground ecosystem functions. Under optimal partitioning theory, plants should… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3688
Abstract: Tree biomass allocation to leaves, roots, and wood affects the residence time of carbon in forests, with potentially dramatic implications for ecosystem carbon storage. However, drivers of tree biomass allocation remain poorly quantified. Using a… read more here.
