DOI: 10.1002/ecy.4500
Abstract: Forest canopy complexity (i.e., the three-dimensional structure of the canopy) is often associated with increased species diversity as well as high primary productivity across natural forests. However, canopy complexity, tree diversity, and productivity are often… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.70029
Abstract: Abstract Diversity–productivity relationships can differ between forests dominated by different mycorrhizal types and be modulated by specialist and generalist pathogens. However, little is known about how these factors interact to modulate biodiversity effects. We addressed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jaridenv.2019.103994
Abstract: Abstract Previous studies reported the positive diversity-productivity relationship could be explained by combinations of species with different rooting distributions and greater legume abundance. However, because plant production is limited by soil water availability in arid… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jpe/rtab064
Abstract: Species diversity-productivity relationships (DPR) in natural ecosystems have been well documented in the literature. However, biotic and abiotic factors that determine their relationships are still poorly understood, especially under future climate change scenarios. Randomized block… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2021.719215
Abstract: Dianzhong cattle is a classic Chinese indigenous cattle breed with historical records dating back to 200 BC. But with its genomic differences having not been clearly elucidated, the quest for genomic characterization will be an… read more here.
