Spatial heterogeneity of soil factors enhances intraspecific variation in plant functional traits in a desert ecosystem

Spatial heterogeneity of soil factors enhances intraspecific variation in plant functional traits in a desert ecosystem

IntroductionFunctional traits of desert plants exhibit remarkable responsiveness, adaptability and plasticity to environmental heterogeneity.MethodsIn this study, we measured six crucial plant functional traits (leaf carbon, leaf nitrogen, leaf phosphorus, leaf thickness, chlorophyll concentration,...
