DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8870
Abstract: Abstract Trait–environment correlations can arise from local adaptation and can identify genetically and environmentally appropriate seeds for restoration projects. However, anthropogenic changes can disrupt the relationships between traits and fitness. Finding the best seed sources… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3124
Abstract: Hypotheses about the mechanisms of community assembly suggest that biotic and abiotic filters constrain species establishment through selection on their functional traits. It is unclear how differences in traits influence the niche dimensions of closely-related… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ecog.04690
Abstract: Species that pass through similar environmental filters, regardless of geographic proximity or evolutionary history, are expected to share many traits, resulting in similar assemblage trait distributions. Convergence of assemblage trait distributions among different biotic regions… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/geb.12573
Abstract: Aim: The characterization of trait–environment relationships over broad-scale gradients is a critical goal for ecology and biogeography. This implies the merging of plot and trait databases to assess community-level trait-based statistics. Potential shortcomings and limitations… read more here.

Unravelling Trait–Environment Relationships at Local and Regional Scales in Temperate Forests
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Plant Science"
DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.907839
Abstract: Understanding the trait–environment relationships has been a core ecological research topic in the face of global climate change. However, the strength of trait–environment relationships at the local and regional scales in temperate forests remains poorly… read more here.
