The adaptive value of functional and life-history traits across fertility treatments in an annual plant.

Annals of botany - 1 Dec 2010

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Plant functional traits are assumed to be adaptive. As selection acts on individuals and not on traits, interpreting the adaptive value of a trait not may be straightforward. For example, productive leaves are associated with fertile environments. However, it is not clear if productive leaves confer an advantage in these habitats, or if they are an advantage as part of a suite of coordinated...
