🍃Canopy has 67% more herbivores than understorey — but not more leaf damage! Resource dilution decouples abundance from herbivory in beech forests. Vertical structure & woody plant diversity drive layer-specific effects 👉️ https://t.co/q25Uxv8IVP

🌳How do species adapt across environments? In Acacia tortilis, plasticity, more than trait means, diverges across the savanna to desert environmental gradient, with distant desert-edge populations converging in their plastic responses 👉️ https://t.co/77x8I9OLDJ

🌳Tree species in forests of the eastern U.S. respond to deviations in climate from local long-term means. Whether this reflects genetic adaptation or more rapid acclimation has significant effects on expected forest response to climate change👉️ https://t.co/ZSi4jiO03r

🌼A 12-year species-removal experiment in a Tibetan alpine meadow shows that biodiversity loss reshapes flowering phenology by advancing flowering, delaying senescence and extending flowering duration, mainly through competitive release👉️ https://t.co/5JbZjXtl4Y

🌱 Researchers measured offspring bulb size, number, and location for over 100 species of Oxalis and identified a size/number trade-off similar to that found in seeds and variation in traits of offspring produced from an individual plant👉️ https://t.co/fsVhhddgxI
