Nutrient stoichiometry and land use rather than species richness determine plant functional diversity
Abstract Plant functional traits reflect individual and community ecological strategies. They allow the detection of directional changes in community dynamics and ecosystemic processes, being an additional tool to assess biodiversity than species richness. Analysis of functional patterns in plant co...
