By means of meta‐analyses we determined how 70 traits related to plant anatomy,
morphology, chemistry, physiology, growth and reproduction are affected by daily light …

Plants are exposed to heterogeneity in the environment where new stress factors (ie, climate
change, land use change, and invasiveness) are introduced, and where inter‐and …

Our knowledge of the ecology of tropical rain-forest trees is limited, with detailed information
available for perhaps only a few hundred of the many thousand of species that occur. Yet a …

Studies of heat and mass exchange between leaves and their local environment are central
to our understanding of plant-atmosphere interactions. The transfer across aerodynamic leaf …

"… a number of chapters provide excellent summaries of the modern methods available for
studying fungal ecology, along with those more traditional methods that are still extremely …

Research in tropical forestry is confronted with the task of finding strategies to alleviate
pressure on remaining forests, and techniques to enhance forest regeneration and restore …

Asian tropical forests are amongst the most diverse on the planet, a richness that belies the
fact that they are dominated by a single family of trees, the Dipterocarpaceae. Many other …

Physiological and anatomical attributes of leaves were examined of three species of
Quercus section Erythrobalanus. All three species occur in moist temperate deciduous …

One of the primary goals in community ecology is to determine the relative importance of
processes and mechanisms that control biodiversity. Here, we examined habitat‐driven …

Morphological, anatomical, biochemical and physiological traits of sun and shade leaves of
adult Quercus ilex, Phillyrea latifolia and Pistacia lentiscus shrub species co-occurring in the …
