Species richness and aggregation effects on the productivity of ruderal plant communities under drought perturbation
The effect of species richness and spatial aggregation on the stability of community productivity in response to drought perturbation was investigated with experimental plant communities. Communities comprising all singleand three-species combinations of the ruderal species, Capsella bursa-pastoris, Tripleurospermum inodorum, Poa annua, and Stellaria media, were established in glasshouse. Habit...
متن کاملEffects of plant species richness on stand structure and productivity
Aims Aboveground biomass production commonly increases with species richness in plant biodiversity experiments. Little is known about the direct mechanisms that cause this result. We tested if by occupying different heights and depths above and below ground, and by optimizing the vertical distribution of leaf nitrogen, species in mixtures can contribute to increased resource uptake and, thus, i...
متن کاملSpecies richness effects on grassland recovery from drought depend on community productivity in a multisite experiment.
Biodiversity can buffer ecosystem functioning against extreme climatic events, but few experiments have explicitly tested this. Here, we present the first multisite biodiversity × drought manipulation experiment to examine drought resistance and recovery at five temperate and Mediterranean grassland sites. Aboveground biomass production declined by 30% due to experimental drought (standardised ...
