Determinants of whole‐plant light requirements in Bornean rain forest tree saplings (2007, background): “However, there have been relatively few explicit tests for such crossovers, and there is continuing debate as to their frequency and importance on both conceptual and statistical grounds (Sack & Grubb 2001; Kitajima & Bolker 2003; Sack & Grubb 2003; Baraloto, Goldberg & Bonal 2005 ).”
High‐dimensional coexistence based on individual variation: a synthesis of evidence (2010, background): “…survival vs. high-light growth (Denslow 1980, Canham 1988, 1989, Poulson and Platt 1989, Welden et al. 1991, Kobe 1996, Walters and Reich 1996, Dalling and Hubbell 2002, Wright 2002, Baraloto et al. 2005, Valladares and Niinemets 2008) could explain diversity in an environment with variable light.”
Seed mass, seedling size and neotropical tree seedling establishment (2005, background): “Furthermore, in a complementary field experiment in which seedlings of nine species, including six of those studied here, were planted in gap and understorey conditions across four soil types, only three of the 36 possible species pairs were found to switch rankings for survival or RGR between any m”
Size‐dependence of growth and mortality influence the shade tolerance of trees in a lowland temperate rain forest (2009, background): “…growth and low-light survival usually assume that the trade-off results in important consequences for tree recruitment dynamics (Lin et al. 2002; Baraloto et al. 2005a), but few studies have proceeded to test this assertion by integrating the dynamics of the species over different life stages…”
Assessing foliar chlorophyll contents with the SPAD-502 chlorophyll meter: a calibration test with thirteen tree species of tropical rainforest in French Guiana (2010, methodology): “Plant material Our study was conducted in a greenhouse at Kourou, French Guiana (5◦ 10’ N, 52◦ 40’ W) between May and July 2005.”
Carbohydrate storage enhances seedling shade and stress tolerance in a neotropical forest (2007, background): “Previous studies involving larger numbers of species have shown that growth‐survival trade-offs can persist well into later ontogenetic stages, in both seedlings ( Baraloto et al. 2005; Gilbert et al. 2006) and saplings (Kobe et al. 1995; Wright et al. 2003; Gilbert et al. 2006).”
