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.

Plant silicon content as a proxy for understanding plant community properties and ecosystem structure
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecosphere"
DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.4907
Abstract: Silicon (Si) content in plant tissues is considered a functional trait that can provide multiple morpho‐physiological benefits to plant individuals. However, it is still unclear whether and how these individual benefits extend to plant community… read more here.

Defoliation and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi shape plant communities in overgrazed semiarid grasslands.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Ecology"
DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2401
Abstract: Overgrazing substantially contributes to global grassland degradation by decreasing plant community productivity and diversity through trampling, defoliation, and removal of nutrients. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi also play a critical role in plant community diversity, composition,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-018-4317-x
Abstract: Clonal plants with diverse growth forms are dominant in plant community of temperate grasslands and sensitive to enhanced atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition. However, whether and how clonal plants with different growth forms differ in their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-025-05819-9
Abstract: Human activities have increased nitrogen (N) bioavailability broadly, resulting in increased plant productivity and decreased plant species richness globally. However, the determinants of the rates of change and the ultimate plant community composition resulting from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10661-018-6964-0
Abstract: In most grassland ecosystems, the effects of mean temperature increase on plant communities have been investigated; however, the effects of climate fluctuations on local plant community metrics are much less well understood. We conducted a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13157-024-01776-w
Abstract: Long-term data sets documenting temporal changes in vegetation communities are uncommon, yet imperative for understanding trends and triggering potential conservation management interventions. For example, decreasing species diversity and increasing non-native species abundance may be indicative… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40333-020-0009-6
Abstract: Succession is one of the central themes of ecology; however, the relationship between aboveground plant communities and underground soils during secondary succession remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the composition of plant community, plant-soil… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2018.05.007
Abstract: Abstract Gold mining has increased sharply in response to global demand. Gold extraction usually causes the formation of tailing dams, in which organic matter and microbial activity decrease, and this consequently constrains plant growth. However,… read more here.
