Combinatorial interactions of biotic and abiotic stresses in plants and their molecular mechanisms: systems biology approach
Plants are continually facing biotic and abiotic stresses, and hence, they need to respond
and adapt to survive. Plant response during multiple and combined biotic and abiotic …

Context‐dependent biotic interactions control plant abundance across altitudinal environmental gradients
Many biotic interactions influence community structure, yet most distribution models for
plants have focused on plant competition or used only abiotic variables to predict plant …

Functional traits, not productivity, predict alpine plant community openness to seedling recruitment under climatic warming
Understanding the degree to which plant communities are open to seedling recruitment is
key to predicting how they will be impacted by climate change. We experimentally assessed …
