DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4602
Abstract: Abstract As global climate change leads to warmer and dryer conditions in the central Andes, alpine plant communities are forced to upward displacements following their climatic niche. Species range shifts are predicted to have major… read more here.

Study on the relationship between functional characteristics and environmental factors in karst plant communities
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9335
Abstract: Abstract Environmental factors drive changes in plant functional traits, which in turn promote community recovery. The environmental conditions of the community are different at different recovery stages. Changing environmental factors may drive the changes in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9435
Abstract: Abstract In agroecosystems, species‐rich habitats, such as linear field margins and flower strips, are beneficial to the overall biodiversity and contribute to pest control. Their effects are thought to be mediated by plant species composition… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3837
Abstract: Abstract Root hemiparasitic plants both compete with and extract resources from host plants. By reducing the abundance of dominant plants and releasing subordinates from competitive exclusion, they can have an outsized impact on plant communities.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/etc.3839
Abstract: Herbicide drift may have unintended impacts on native vegetation, adversely affecting individual species and plant communities. To determine the potential ecological effects of herbicide drift, small plant community plots were constructed using 9 perennial species… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00606-019-01617-y
Abstract: There is a lack of a comprehensive study of eastern Adriatic salt marsh vegetation with special attention to plant–soil relationships that determine individual plant assemblages. We surveyed 41 sites of salt marshes on the Croatian… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10531-021-02257-w
Abstract: An understanding of the diversity spatial organization in plant communities provides essential information for management and conservation planning. In this study we investigated, using a multi-species approach, how plant–plant interactions determine the local structure and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11252-019-0827-5
Abstract: Trait-based approaches have been successfully used to demonstrate how the modified ecological conditions within urban areas filter plant species within plant communities. However, there is growing evidence that trait measurement in situ may improve knowledge… read more here.
