The functional syndrome: linking individual trait variability to ecosystem functioning.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 6 Dec 2017

Raffard Allan, Lecerf Antoine, Cote Julien, Buoro Mathieu, Lassus Remy, Cucherousset Julien

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic variability is increasingly assessed through functional response and effect traits, which provide a mechanistic framework for investigating how an organism responds to varying ecological factors and how these responses affect ecosystem functioning. Covariation between response and effect traits has been poorly examined at the intraspecific level, thus hampering progress in understanding how phenotypic...
