Aims We study the effect of shading on the ecophysiology and anatomy of Epiphyllum phyllanthus to determine its plasticity and tolerance. Methods Specimens of E. phyllanthus were subjected to full sun, 35%, 75%, and 85% shading for 60 days. The growth characteristics, phylloclade anatomy and water content in the plants were quantified and compared. Results All individuals subjected to full sun and 35% shading had died. A shading of 85% produced the highest fresh and dry mass of the stems. Higher shading caused no effect in the allocation of biomass to stems or roots or on the relative growth rate, net assimilation rate, leaf area ratio or water content. The thickness of the phylloclade increased with increased shading. The highest stomatal density on both surfaces was observed in the treatment with 75% shading. Conclusion E. phyllanthus is a sciophytic plant that requires shade to survive. Its main strategy appears to be the greater accumulation of water in its phylloclade under more shaded conditions, which stimulates plant growth.","PeriodicalId":49691,"journal":{"name":"Plant Ecology & Diversity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49045730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monitoring the impacts of disturbance on the dynamics of riparian vegetation can help to develop evidence-based forest management guidelines. Aims We evaluated the woody composition and structure along a disturbance gradient of a riparian forest corridor to quantify the effects of disturbance severity on regeneration (density and spatial distribution). Methods All trees and seedlings and saplings were assessed in 90 plots of 500 m2 each, representing a range of habitats with differing disturbance severity at three sites along a large forest corridor to characterise species composition and to determine heterogeneity among, related to the level of disturbance. Results A total of 41 species belonging to 34 genera and 20 families were encountered. Fabaceae-Mimosoideae, Rubiaceae and Sapindaceae were the dominant families. The diversity indices indicated that the most disturbed site was the most diverse. The structure of the woody stratum showed that most individuals were in the lower diameter and height size classes, indicating a dominance of juveniles. Conclusions Despite the variable levels of disturbance at the studies sites, the high density of seedlings present facilitates the regeneration of woody species.

Methods We classified the vegetation of long-abandoned central Apennine pastures and related their species composition and diversity to environmental variables. Results We identified four community-types whose distribution was related to topographically determined soil water availability. The species composition of drought-tolerant communities on south-eastern slopes with shallow soils was largely similar to that of anthropogenic grasslands. Resource-poor conditions were related to enhanced α-TD and β-TD and reduced α-FD for traits related to temporal niche differentiation and resource acquisition strategies.

Major disparities, where open low biomass systems occurred in the same climate zone as closed forests have been dismissed as products of deforestation. Many of these open ecosystems of the world, have been shown to be of ancient origins, stable alternatives to forests, and typically maintained by disturbance regimes. Open ecosystems include some of the most biodiverse regions in the world. They are often consumer-controlled by large mammal herbivores or fire. Mosaics of closed forest and open ecosystems have been interpreted as alternative stable states with each state maintained by positive feedbacks to environmental conditions that maintain that state. For example, flammable grasses maintain fires which consume woody plants, while closed forests exclude flammable grasses by shading them out. Understanding open ecosystems may therefore require some radical revision of familiar ecological concepts, starting with the hypothesis that climate largely determines world vegetation patterns. Open ecosystems function differently from forests in an earth system context affecting the hydrological cycle, rates of rock weathering, and presenting a different planetary surface to solar radiation reaching the earth’s land surface. Open ecosystems require explicit attention in conservation policy and management.","PeriodicalId":49691,"journal":{"name":"Plant Ecology & Diversity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43089544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Theoretical conductivity was negatively associated with fibre fractions. Wood density was positively associated with fibre fraction and was also related to parenchyma and vessel fractions and vessel element lengths.

Results A staggered flowering pattern and distinctiveness of insect pollinators with non-signalling modularity and a variation in the Baccharis-pollinators network structure throughout the year were observed. The distinctiveness on pollinators with a strong bee-dependence added to temporal divergence on flowering among the species leads to no negative effects on fruit set.

Large patches received a greater richness and abundance of flower visitors, had more flowers visited, and greater pollen flow overall (62%), representing 62% of the total intra-patch-size and 64% of inter-patch-size pollen flow. Alternatively, small patches represented 16% of the total intra-patch-size and 5% of the inter-patch-size pollen flow. Native bee species were found almost exclusively in small patches.

Aim To quantify the dimensionality of the trait variation of trees and tree-like species to test the fast–slow plant economy hypothesis in a subtropical rain forest. Methods We conducted phylogenetic Principal Components Analyses and correlation test on traits describing carbon and water economy in the leaves, stem, and seeds to evaluate the dimensionality of trait space and covariation among traits. Results We found five axes explaining 71% of trait variation. The first and second axes described carbon capture and allocation. Water use economy was related to carbon capture and was also represented on the third axis. Stomata traits were related to the fourth axis and plant potential height to the fourth and fifth axes.
