We explored how plant functional traits respond to environmental factors and examined the
underlying mechanism driving the ecological strategies of plant species in a community …

Functional traits, properties of organisms correlated with ecological performance, play a
central role in plant community assembly and functioning. To some extents, functional traits …

Plant species can adapt to heterogeneous habitats through variations in functional traits. For
the plants with different growth forms, how to adjust their phenotypes to adapt to the …

Understanding how plant trait-species abundance relationships change with a range of
single and multivariate environmental properties is crucial for explaining species abundance …

Abstract Changes in leaf physiological trait indicators and shifts in their relationships are
expected to reveal plant ecological strategies during succession, and how they interact with …

Plants growing in forests at different succession stages in diverse habitats may adopt
various life strategies from the perspective of plant functional traits. However, species …

Question Bivariate relationships among functional traits reflect how plants adjust to
environments through the allocation of limiting resources. Bivariate relationships are well …

Plant functional traits have been shown to vary with environmental conditions. However, we
lack empirical data on how plant functional traits of different plant life forms respond to …

The relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning is an important issue in
ecology. Plant functional traits and their diversity are key determinants of ecosystem function …

Aims: Establishing the relationship between plant functional traits and community dynamics
is one of the core issues of functional ecology. Previous studies have found weak evidence …
