Predicting the global incidence of seed desiccation sensitivity (2017, background): “…germination of seeds is a crucial factor determining the presence or absence of a species at a site, yet seed traits are often overlooked (e.g. Jim enez-Alfaro et al. 2016; Larson & Funk 2016) in favour of functional traits measured solely for the mature plant and, more rarely, also for seedlings.”
Effects of disturbance frequency and severity on plant traits: An assessment across a temperate flora (2018, background): “…there is much less information on the response of plant traits to disturbance, the other key environmental gradient that has shaped the evolution of plant growth forms (Bellingham & Sparrow, 2000; Grime, 1977; Klimešová, Tackenberg, & Herben, 2016; Larson & Funk, 2016; Zanne et al., 2014).”
Ontogenetic shifts in plant ecological strategies (2018, background): “Despite the recent progress in trait‐based plant ecology, plant regeneration traits remain poorly understood (Larson & Funk, 2016), and this limits our knowledge of the assembly of natural and managed communities (Grubb, 1977; Paine et al., 2015).”
