Assessing the generality of global leaf trait relationships. (2005, background): “Trait relationships may also be modified by soil nutrients (Wright et al., 2001; Niinemets & Kull, 2003).”
Filtering processes in the assembly of plant communities: Are species presence and abundance driven by the same traits? (2007, result): “The increase of acquisitive plants with moisture is as expected according to other studies at different scales and organization levels (Díaz et al. 1999, 2004; Fonseca et al. 2000; Wright et al. 2001; Ackerly et al. 2002; Grime 2006).”
Photosynthetic physiology of eucalypts along a sub-continental rainfall gradient in northern Australia (2011, result): “, 1998) contrasts with results of two studies in eastern Australia (Stewart et al., 1995; Wright et al., 2001).”
Shocks to the system: community assembly of the oak savanna in a 40-year fire frequency experiment (2012, background): “Such functional traits shifts would be expected across this fine-scaled ecotone, based on known significance of these functional attributes (e.g., Niinemets 2001, Wright et al. 2001, Reich et al. 2003a, b, Poorter et al. 2006, Valladares and Sanchez-Gomez 2006).”
Leaf traits and resprouting ability in the Mediterranean basin (2006, background): “In fact, they are often correlated (Fig. 2; Cunningham et al. 1999; Wright et al. 2001).”
Using temperature‐dependent changes in leaf scaling relationships to quantitatively account for thermal acclimation of respiration in a coupled global climate–vegetation model (2008, background): “... Wright & Westoby, 1999; Wright et al., 2001, 2004a, b). Such studies have acknowledged the potential importance of climate in determining scatter in generalized leaf trait relationships linking leaf R to LMA and N concentration and have shown that at given LMA and N concentration values, rates o”
Community assembly and shifts in plant trait distributions across an environmental gradient in coastal California (2009, background): “Comparative efforts are usually focused on comparing species means (Wright et al. 2001, Cavender-Bares et al. 2004) or examining intraspecific variation due to plastic and/or heritable differentiation (Maherali et al. 2002).”
Cross‐species patterns in the coordination between leaf and stem traits, and their implications for plant hydraulics (2006, background): “…studied by Ackerly (2004), more generally, it seems not to be: elsewhere, A area and leaf size have either been positively correlated or have shown no relationship (Hogan et al. 1995, Ackerly and Reich 1999, Reich et al. 1999, Wright et al. 2001, Prior et al. 2003, Cavender-Bares et al. 2004).”
