Effects of algal diversity on the production of biomass in homogeneous and heterogeneous nutrient environments: a microcosm experiment.

PloS one - 30 Jul 2008

Weis Jerome J, Madrigal Daniel S, Cardinale Bradley J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: One of the most common questions addressed by ecologists over the past decade has been--how does species richness impact the production of community biomass? Recent summaries of experiments have shown that species richness tends to enhance the production of biomass across a wide range...
