• Differential responses of plant functional trait to grazing between two contrasting dominant C3 and C4 species in a typical steppe of Inner Mongolia, China (2011, background): “…especially for some ‘soft’ traits, which can be easily and quickly measured, such as plant height, leaf size, leaf toughness, leaf dry matter content, and specific leaf area (SLA) (Adler et al. 2005; Díaz et al. 2007; Díaz et al. 2001; De Bello et al. 2005; Golodets et al. 2009; Vesk et al. 2004).”

• Plant functional types: are we getting any closer to the Holy Grail? (2007, background): “There have been suggestions in the literature, based on pair-wise regional comparsions (Díaz et al. 2001, Adler et al. 2004, 2005), that evolutionary history of grazing by ungulates, as well as habitat productivity, determine what plant traits are favoured by grazing.”
• Contrasting Relationships between Precipitation and Species Richness in Space and Time (2007, background): “This positive relationship between precipitation and richness, common in grasslands (Cornwell and Grubb 2003, Adler et al. 2005), could be generated by indirect effects of precipitation on a variety of biotic and abiotic variables.”
