Population ecologists develop theoretical and pragmatic knowledge of how and why
populations change or remain stable, how life histories evolve and devise management …

In a variable world, plants must have strategies to deal with environmental conditions as
they change. Understanding these strategies is critical since climate change not only affects …

This book addresses an important problem in ecology: how are communities assembled
from species pools? This pressing question underlies a broad array of practical problems in …

Application of chemical mutagens is used for artificially induced in vitro mutation to develop
new cultivars with elite characteristics. However, the optimization of selecting proper …

Functional traits are good predictors of plant responses and adaptations to ever‐changing
environments. However, forecasting forest community dynamics is challenging because the …

摘要植物功能性状的表达和植被环境适应性相关, 植物功能性状之间的权衡变化体现了植物在
放牧胁迫下资源的重新整合和获取. 本文总结了放牧干扰下植物功能性状表达的差异性 …

Trade-offs are central to life history theory and play a role in driving life history diversity. They
arise from a finite amount of resources that need to be allocated among different functions by …

Background Woody bamboos are the only diverse large perennial grasses in mesic-wet
forests and are widely distributed in the understory and canopy. The functional trait …

Ecological strategy spectrum is the relative proportion of species in different categories of
ecological strategies in a biotic community. Here, we explored ecological strategy spectra in …

Aim Historically, climate has been a dominant driver of global vegetation patterns. Recently,
ecological understanding has been updated to acknowledge the influence of human land …
