Approximately 25 years ago, ecologists became increasingly interested in the question of
whether ongoing biodiversity loss matters for the functioning of ecosystems. As such, a new …

Understanding the effects of intraspecific genetic diversity on the structure and functioning of
ecological communities is a fundamentally important part of evolutionary ecology and may …

Background Panicoideae are the second largest subfamily in Poaceae (grass family), with
212 genera and approximately 3316 species. Previous studies have begun to reveal …

Identifying how plant species diversity varies across environmental gradients remains a
controversial topic in plant community ecology because of complex interactions among …

While best practices for evaluating restoration ecology projects are emerging rapidly, budget
constraints often limit postrestoration monitoring, which emphasizes the need for practical …

为了深入探讨植物对环境变化的适应机制, 该文以内蒙古草原区羊草(Leymus chinensis)
