• Environmental heterogeneity modulates the effect of plant diversity on the spatial variability of grassland biomass 

      Daleo, Pedro; Alberti, Juan; Chaneton, Enrique J.; Iribarne, Oscar; Tognetti, Pedro M.; Bakker, Jonathan D.; Borer, Elizabeth T.; Bruschetti, Martín; MacDougall, Andrew S.; Pascual, Jesús; Peri, Pablo Luis; Hautier, Yann (Springer Nature, 2023-03-31)
      Plant productivity varies due to environmental heterogeneity, and theory suggests that plant diversity can reduce this variation. While there is strong evidence of diversity effects on temporal variability of productivity, ...
    • Global patterns and environmental drivers of forest functional composition 

      Bouchard, Elise; Searle, Eric B.; Drapeau, Pierre; Liang, Jingjing; Gamarra, Javier G.P.; Abegg, Meinrad; Alberti, Giorgio; Almeyda Zambrano, Angélica M.; Alvarez-Davila, Esteban; Alves, Luciana F.; Peri, Pablo Luis; Paquette, Alain (Wiley, 2024-02)
      To determine the relationships between the functional trait composition of forest communities and environmental gradients across scales and biomes and the role of species relative abundances in these relationships. Location: ...
    • Putting plant resistance traits on the map: a test of the idea that plants are better defended at lower latitudes 

      Moles, Angela T.; Wallis, Ian R.; Foley, William J.; Warton, David I.; Stegen, James C.; Bisigato, Alejandro J.; Cella-Pizarro, Lucrecia; Clark, Connie J.; Cohen, Philippe S.; Cornwell, William K.; Peri, Pablo Luis; Prior, Lynda D. (Wiley, 2011-05-03)
      It has long been believed that plant species from the tropics have higher levels of traits associated with resistance to herbivores than do species from higher latitudes. A meta-analysis recently showed that the published ...
