Plant nutrient-acquisition strategies change with soil age
Nitrogen (N) tends to limit plant productivity on young soils; phosphorus (P) becomes
increasingly limiting in ancient soils because it gradually disappears through leaching and …

Plant mineral nutrition in ancient landscapes: high plant species diversity on infertile soils is linked to functional diversity for nutritional strategies
Ancient landscapes, which have not been glaciated in recent times or disturbed by other
major catastrophic events such as volcanic eruptions, are dominated by nutrient …

Phosphorus nutrition of Proteaceae in severely phosphorus-impoverished soils: are there lessons to be learned for future crops?
Australia harbors some of the most nutrient-impoverished soils on Earth. Southwestern

Historical evidence of recurrent fire in many of the world's biomes suggests that fire may
have had profound evolutionary influences on their extant floras. However, the role of fire as …
