Plant traits co-vary with altitude in grasslands and forests in the European Alps (2010, background): “On the other hand, the drier conditions associated with warm lowlands favour sclerophyllous species (Barboni et al. 2004) with low SLA values (e.”
Focused identification of germplasm strategy (FIGS) detects wheat stem rust resistance linked to environmental variables (2011, background): “Furthermore, some of the traits that have been found to carry strong climatic signals in wild species are being used to model the impact of climate changes (Barboni et al. 2004; Webb et al. 2010).”
Plant trait responses to grazing – a global synthesis (2007, methodology): “Region-specific PFTs have already been implemented in some DGVMs (e.g. Barboni et al., 2004), suggesting that the incorporation of these refinements in future developments should not pose serious technical challenges.”
Dynamic global vegetation modelling: quantifying terrestrial ecosystem responses to large-scale environmental change (2007, background): “Current approaches to PFT classification emphasise readily observable plant traits that confer characteristic responses to factors of the environment and disturbance or management regime (e.g. Diaz et al. 1999b; Diaz et al. 2002; Gurvich et al. 2002; Barboni et al. 2004; Diaz et al. 2004; Wright et ”
