Phylogenetic meta-analysis of the functional traits of clonal plants foraging in changing environments.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

Foraging behavior, one of the adaptive strategies of clonal plants, has stimulated a tremendous amount of research. However, it is a matter of debate whether there is any general pattern in the foraging traits (functional traits related to foraging behavior) of clonal plants in response to diverse environments. We collected data from 97 published papers concerning the relationships between foraging traits (e.g.,...
