DOI: 10.1007/s11104-024-06863-9
Abstract: Leaf economic spectrum is described by key leaf economic traits, such as leaf tissue density (LTD), specific leaf area (SLA) and leaf nitrogen concentration (LNC). It has been suggested that these key leaf economic traits… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-16839-9
Abstract: Recent studies show coordinated relationships between plant leaf traits and their capacity to predict ecosystem functions. However, how leaf traits will change within species and whether interspecific trait relationships will shift under future environmental changes… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/plants12030581
Abstract: The leaf economic spectrum (LES) has been repeatedly verified with regional and global datasets. However, the LES of desert plants and its drivers has not been fully explored at the species level. In this study,… read more here.
