• Carbohydrate storage enhances seedling shade and stress tolerance in a neotropical forest (2007, background): “This mechanism, potentially coupled with down-regulation of respiration rates ( Walters & Reich 2000 ) and other acclimation responses, may explain why the more shade-tolerant species exhibited smaller changes in survival (Fig. 1) and carbon balance (Fig. 4a) in response to our lightreduction treatm”
• Trade-offs in seedling survival, growth, and physiology among hardwood species of contrasting successional status along a light-availability gradient (2001, background): “... of tree seedlings in low light (reviewed by Walters and Reich 1999) provide considerable support for a long-held assertion (Grime 1965) that shade tolerance is inversely related to tissue respiration rate and that variation in the latter underlies a general but poorly understood trade-off betwee”
• SEED SIZE, NITROGEN SUPPLY, AND GROWTH RATE AFFECT TREE SEEDLING SURVIVAL IN DEEP SHADE (2000, background): “In addition, there may be costs to maximizing LAR, such as higher probabilities of damage for high SLA leaves (Coley 1988), less carbohydrate allocation to storage (Kobe 1997), higher whole-plant respiration rates (Walters and Reich 2000), or greater leaf turnover rates (Walters and Reich 1999).”
• Coupling of respiration, nitrogen, and sugars underlies convergent temperature acclimation in Pinus banksiana across wide‐ranging sites and populations (2008, background): “…is a critical determinant of plant, ecosystem, and global carbon exchange (Ryan, 1991; Cox et al., 2000; Valentini et al., 2000), as well as a trait that influences metabolic fitness (Walters & Reich, 2000) and is integral to a broader multidimensional trait syndrome (Wright et al., 2004).”
• Strategy shifts in leaf physiology, structure and nutrient content between species of high‐ and low‐rainfall and high‐ and low‐nutrient habitats (2001, background): “…based on an analysis of measured rates for stems and associated leaves for 13 species from three different studies ( Walters, Kruger & Reich 1993; Walters & Reich, 2000; J.L. Machado and P.B.R., unpublished results), for which the mean ratio of stem R d /leaf R d was 0·68 (±0·06 SE among…”
