Influence of fire history and soil properties on plant species richness and functional diversity in a neotropical savanna

Differences in plant species richness and composition are associated with soil properties and disturbances such as fire, which can therefore be key determinants of species occurrence in savanna plant communities. We measured species richness, using nine plant functional traits and abundance to calcu...
