P>1. Functional traits are increasingly used to investigate community structure, ecosystem functioning or to classify species into functional groups. These functional traits are expected to be variable between and within species. Intraspecific f[...]

P>1. The positive interspecific abundance-occupancy relationship (AOR) is a ubiquitous, but highly variable ecological pattern. Understanding this variation is a key challenge for community ecologists and little progress has been made using ecol[...]

P>1. Nitrogen (N) limits primary productivity in many systems and can have dramatic effects on plant-herbivore interactions, but its effects on mutualistic interactions at the community level are not well-understood. The reproduction of many pla[...]

P>1. We investigated the characteristics and causes of striped patterning in minerotrophic Sphagnum cristatum mires on the western Central Plateau in Tasmania by surveying the mire vegetation, surface and subsurface topography, analysing their t[...]

P>1. Long-term basal area increment (BAI) in Abies pinsapo was studied to investigate the way density-dependent factors modulate the responses of radial growth to climatic stresses in relict stands of a drought-sensitive Mediterranean fir. 2. Fi[...]

P>1. A substantial portion of the crop of fruiting trees falls beneath parent plants as a result of dispersal failure. Such diaspores are considered as waste because the likelihood of plant recruitment is usually very small close to parent trees[...]

P>1. Many plant species depend upon animals for seed dispersal, yet animals disperse seeds in pursuit of their own social and behavioural agendas. Animal social behaviour affects where and how they forage, so it must also shape patterns of seed [...]

P>1. The stress-gradient hypothesis (SGH) predicts that the frequency of facilitative and competitive interactions will vary inversely across abiotic stress gradients, with facilitation being more common when abiotic stress is high. The effect o[...]
