Scaling from Traits to Ecosystems: Developing a General Trait Driver Theory via Integrating Trait-Based and Metabolic Scaling Theories (2015, background): “Similar to past findings, across all plots, the community mean SLA increased (see Craine et al., 2001; Knops and Reinhart, 2000) and the variance Table 3 Correlations Between Trait Moments and Annual Net Primary Productivity for the Park Grass experiment Central Moment of Community Trait Distributio”
Root nutrient concentration and biomass allocation are more plastic than morphological traits in response to nutrient limitation (2017, background): “Full species names are Agathis australis, Dacrycarpus dacrydiodes, Knightia excelsa, and Laurelia novae-zelandiae Knops and Reinhart 2000; Meziane and Shipley 1999; Navas and Garnier 2002), while others observed no effect (Grassein et al. 2010; Valladares et al. 2000a).”
Leaf Traits as Functional Descriptors of the Intensity of Continuous Grazing in Native Grasslands in the South of Brazil (2010, result): “…foliar traits that identify them (Poorter et al. 1990), does not necessarily indicate their ability to grow in more or less fertile environments as earlier work has suggested (Ackerly and Bazzaz 1995; Ryser and Lambers 1995; Knops and Reinhart 2000; Cruz et al. 2002; Al Haj Khaled et al. 2005).”
A global study of relationships between leaf traits, climate and soil measures of nutrient fertility (2009, background): “It has been reported frequently that low N fertility (van Arendonk et al., 1997; Knops & Reinhart, 2000; Meziane & Shipley, 2001) as well as low P fertility (Specht & Rundel, 1990; McDonald et al., 2003; Paoli, 2006) select for similar suites of leaf traits: low SLA, LNC, LPC (but see Cordell et…”
No effect of varying soil resource heterogeneity on plant species richness in a low fertility grassland (2007, result): “A number of other studies have found that E. repens becomes dominant with nitrogen addition in low productivity grasslands (Tilman 1987; Inouye & Tilman 1995; Knops & Reinhart 2000; see also Pennings et al. 2005).”
